I want to take finasteride and dutasteride. Is this the best plan?

I’m afraid I have to disagree. Both drugs work the same way. Dutasteride is 85% effective as a competitive inhibitor of DHT compared to finasteride, which is 70% effective; however, you pay a price for using or adding dutasteride, which is its long half-life. Dutasteride has a half-life in the bloodstream of 5-6 weeks, while finasteride has a half-life of 4-6 hours. What does that mean?” If you develop significant side effects, stopping finasteride will get it out of your bloodstream in a day or two at the most, with some finasteride sticking to the receptors for a few weeks. On the other hand, dutasteride will stay in your bloodstream for months, possibly remaining in your tissues at the blocking site for up to 1/2 year or longer. There may also be other effects on dutasteride because it blocks more than one receptor. What else could it do, this a good question to probe. Getting rid of the effects by stopping the drug is more ominous for dutasteride than finasteride.
