Description:

Dutasteride, sold under the brand name Avodart among others, is a medication used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate) and androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss).

It was developed by GlaxoSmithKline and is a 5α-reductase inhibitor which prevents the conversion of theandrogen sex hormone testosterone into the more potent dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The drug has been licensed for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in South Korea since 2009, but has not been approved for this indication in the United States, though it is commonly used off-label.

 Applications:

Proscar (Finasteride) is used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) in men. Topically (on the scalp itself) it is of some effect in minimizing further hair loss. In combination with Nizoral and spironolactone (which smells awful, by the way) it can actually reverse loss moderately.

Used for the treatment of prostate disease. Clinical studies suggest that, with Finasteride 1 mg/day, continuously taking it for 3 months or slightly long , users can have their hair regrow, after 1 year if continuous treatment, hair growth rate is up to 48%.

Postmarketing Experience

Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure:   

2. Hypersensitivity Reaction: hypersensitivity reactions such as rash, pruritus, urticaria, and angioedema (including swelling of the lips, tongue, throat, and face);

3. Reproductive System: sexual dysfunction that continued after discontinuation of treatment, including erectile dysfunction, libido disorders, ejaculation disorders, and orgasm disorders; male infertility and/or poor seminal quality (normalization or improvement of seminal quality has been reported after discontinuation of Finasteride); testicular pain.
