Got my dutasteride, but I have 29 finasteride tablets left. Finish them?

[Rawtashk]

Just wondering what you think about taking the rest of the finasteride tabs while the dutasteride starts to take effect. Bad idea?

My theory goes that it doesn't take finasteride that long to get out of your body, but it takes the dutasteride about 60-90 days before it gets the DHT blocking into full swing. I don't want to have 2 DHT swings within 30 days, so I was thinking that I'd just finish up the finasteride while also taking the dutasteride.

Thoughts?

Alternating until the finasteride is gone will probably be fine. Unless there is some danger here that I'm not aware of.

Maybe drop the finasteride and use a loading dose for the dutasteride.

Why did you go with dutasteride over finasteride?

 

[Rawtashk]

Looking to see if I can re-grow some of my hairline. I'm a NW2 (maybe 1.5?) and I'd like to get some of the temple hairs back.

finasteride worked pretty well for me for the last 3 years, so I figure that I can always go back to it if needed.

I've been taking both for about 5 months finasteride 5 x a week and dutasteride 2 x times a week and I've had no sides,I have about less then 2 months of finasteride left and when it gone I'm moving to just dutasteride 3 to 4 times a week,I don't see what it could hurt to finish up the rest.

Are any of you buying dutasteride on these offshore company websites?

4rx.com

Dunno if you're interested in buying some, but let me know if you are. I can save you about $30-$40 on a year's supply.

Yes I am, however nothing topical.

I've been taking Finasteride from them for the last 3 years. My hair loss went from 200 hairs a day to about 25, so I know it wasn't just a sugar pill.

2 money saving tips
1: Let's say you want 180 caps. Add the 90 caps to your cart instead. It will take you to a checkout page, but it will also give you a chance to upgrade your order to 180 pills for $20 cheaper (or do the same trick for a year's supply by adding 180 to cart, then upgrading to 360 for $40 cheaper)

2: Use the promo code Q52EM37T during checkout for another 10% off. That's my promo code that I got for being a return customer, so feel free to use it

Been using Duprost from unitedpharmacies.co.uk for some time - must be pushing a couple of years by now. The little orange pills seem to be working as efficiently as the GSK Dutasteride I took beforehand.

What kind of results did you get from dutasteride?

 

[smitysmity]

The problem with finasteride is it tends to give people side effects after a long term usage which if you want those side effects to go away, you need to wait long term as well as they don't go away overnight by stopping finasteride.

For those reasons, I have no side effects right now with finasteride but I will stop using finasteride after this month (going to order one more month and then I'm out).

I'll read up on dutasteride though to see if people experience the same issues with dutasteride with finasteride. Most people so far have said when first taking dutasteride, they experience no side effects but it could just be dejavu all over again and after several months, the side effects start up again.

What kind of results did you get from dutasteride?

Basically a step up from Finasteride. finasteride was already going great guns on thickening my crown, but it could only slow the rate of frontal loss (I'm a diffuse thinner). Dutasteride finished the job up top - no more bald spot, hair back to pre-male pattern baldness levels - and managed to stem any further frontal thinning for a good four years. Okay, technically the hairline did thin during that period, but the next couple of inches in showed sufficient improvement to offset the loss. In fact cosmetically I'd say I gained, as in strong light you could no longer see as far 'into' my hair, if that makes sense.

Unfortunately after said four-or-so years grace the frontal thinning resumed. Tried Prox-N for a time: no visible results and messy to boot; now on spironolactone cream twice per day, seems to be holding back the (male pattern baldness) tide thus far.

Have you ever used Dutas by dr.reddys?

 

[Slartibartfast]

Once briefly (for about a month) when unitedpharmacies.co.uk had no Duprost in stock. Apart from then I've been a Cipla man... except for all those years I used Glaxo's product.

 

[howwedoinladies]

Okay cool yeah just wondering cuz I switched from finasteride to Dutas from the US United Pharmacy site and was wondering how effective/ legit it is.

Any reason you only used it for a month/ prefer the cipla duprost?

 

[Slartibartfast]

Really just a random initial choice to go with Duprost over Dutas - both were/are the same price. As for why I went straight back onto Cipla's offering as soon as united got it back in stock, well simply a case of sticking with what you know works. No great intellectual reasoning I'm afraid.
