Regular Member samiam Posted July 13, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted July 13, 2022 I just started .5mg Oral Dutasteride + 2.5 mg Oral Minoxidil. I've never taken any other drugs for anything. All else being equal, can I take both of these drugs at the same time each day? Or is it best to space them out e.g., .5 Dut in the am and 2.5mg Minoxidil at night, or should I split one or both of them to take 2x/day, or other regimen? I did take the first day simultaneous in the am and felt a bit woozy with a slight headache and slept most of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find this really hard to believe. You've never taken a prescription medication for anything in your life? You have never been sick, your doctor has never prescribed you anything? 47 minutes ago, samiam said: I did take the first day simultaneous in the am and felt a bit woozy with a slight headache and slept most of the day Placebo effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, someone can help with my questions. To elaborate on your skepticism and question, though, and my previous statement - I have never taken any drugs previously that would have any bearing on an answer to my questions here i.e., no medications for heart, blood pressue, for hair restoration etc. yes of course there's been a couple times when I was really young that I have taken a prescribed steroid maybe twice and maybe some OTC cold medicine when sick, but otherwise no medicine in last 25 years or so - I never really get sick and if I do get sick I take no drugs, no pain meds, never had surgery etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE TRUTH Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 You can take them at the same time. Put them next to your bed. Just pop them with a glass of water when you get up. The schedule really does not make any difference in any way as far as the efficacy goes. Give them a good 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE TRUTH Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 1 hour ago, RTC said: what are your thoughts on Karadeniz' youtube persona during his recorded consultations? Hahahahhahahahahah Karadeniz is a funny one. 😂 Sometimes he seems very nice. Sometimes he comes across as being crazy and arogant. I've even heard reports of weird behaviour. Like some dude reported he was yelling and repeating "YES I CAN DO EVERYTHING" when candidly asked by his patient if he could lower the hairline. 😂 I gotta say his english is excellent. Better than any other turkish surgeons or nurses techs etc I've ever spoken to I remember J used to speak very highly of him... Sadly Karadeniz has chosen quantity over quality. He's become a hairmill these days... I believe he does only the design and "opening of the channels" at best. For the rest, I guess "nurses take over" 😂 So basically classic turkish scheme. Unfortuantely I've seen several bad results from his clinic. One was from username masd or musd. Something like that. It was a really bad one and very poor planning.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The side effect you described could be due to blood pressure. Do you have a blood pressure cuff? You should invest in one if you’re gonna take oral minoxidil.
