What Is Dutasteride?

Dutasteride inhibits both Type I and Type II 5-alpha reductase enzymes (vs. only Type II for finasteride), producing deeper DHT suppression. Some studies suggest greater hair regrowth outcomes compared to finasteride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

Is dutasteride stronger than finasteride?

Yes — dutasteride suppresses DHT more completely. This may produce better results for some patients, but the deeper hormonal effect may also increase the likelihood of related side effects.
