I Use Finasteride and Dutasteride Together
doctor i am a portuguese patient on finasteride 5mg and my doctor add dutasteride 0.5mg 1year ago. i have get most all of my hair in the front area, and no longer have receding hairline. i think this must bring the question whether they both could be used together. in portugal dutasteride is approved for BPH only. thanks for your attention
I have seen two patients who have reversed their frontal hair loss on Propecia (finasteride) alone. If Avodart (dutasteride) added to Propecia caused such miraculous changes on a consistent basis, I would be surprised, but pleased to know it. For the readers of the blog, do not rush out and get on Avodart upon reading with post. This medication is still going through clinical trials for the treatment of hair loss and therefore is not FDA approved for such.
I have used 1-1.5mg of proscar for about 8 years.About 2 years ago I added avodart 0.5mg which I take every 4 days or so and use topical minoxidil 12.5% twice a day. I started losing hair at age 17 (I’m now 32) in a generalized class 6 pattern. I’ve managed to keep quite a bit of hair with this regemine and have never experienced any side effects.
