Senior Member Gram Posted February 15, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Hello all. After reading up on dutasteride i am contemplating switching over. If you haven't read the comparison study i suggest you do so. I spoke to my HT doc who agreed that dut is more effective. I know that dut isnt FDA approved for hairloss and that it is more potent in theory and with it the potential sides, but I'm curious as to why the majority of us is on fin given the data. Would be curious what your experiences have been, both positive and negative. Edited February 15, 2015 by Gram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member KO Posted February 15, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2015 One concern is lack of long term safety data re type 1 5ar inhibition. There can be unanticipated sides, eg we now find it increases insulin resistance. 3382 FUE Lupanzula http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/185463-3382-grafts-lupanzula.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Gram Posted February 15, 2015 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2015 I hear you. Both are relatively new drugs though with their inherent dangers. I'm just surprised more people don't go down the Dut route as both are a calculated risk and the desperation of some on these forums for hair is pretty high yet fin seems to be the standard.
