This worked for me, I had already been on meds for years but was slowly losing ground on min and finasteride, so I added dutasteride 2x per week.
For the first time i experienced regrowth and my hair improved dramatically.
Theres a good chance he'd regrow some hair but not everyone gets sides you know. If he expects sides he will more than likely get them. Placebo effect plays a role for sure.
