Dutasteride 0.5 Mg

Medicine Overview

Dutasteride 0.5 mg is a medication used primarily to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men, a condition where the prostate gland becomes enlarged and causes urinary difficulties. Containing dutasteride as its active ingredient, it works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). By lowering DHT levels, Dutasteride helps reduce the size of the prostate, easing symptoms like frequent urination, weak urine flow, and difficulty starting urination. Additionally, it is sometimes used off-label for treating male pattern baldness by promoting hair regrowth. Choose Dutasteride 0.5 mg for effective management of prostate enlargement and hair loss.
