Why is this medication prescribed?
Dutas (Generic Avodart) is used to treat an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or ,BPH).
This is when the prostate is enlarged in men and causes urinating problems.
Dutasteride (the active ingredient in Dutas) is similar to Finasteride (the active
ingredient in Propecia and Proscar) with the way that it inhibits DHT.
It works by blocking the production of a
natural substance that enlarges the prostate. This shrinks the enlarged prostate over time and brings relief
from the symptoms commonly associated with BPH. Dutas (Generic Avodart) has also been
shown to have beneficial effects on hairloss.
How should this medicine be used?
It is usually
taken once a day with or without food. Take Dutas (Generic Avodart) exactly as directed. Do not take
more or less than prescribed by your doctor. Take each dose with a full glass of water
and swallow the capsules whole. Do not chew, split crush or split the capsules.
