Dutas alternate
I have been prescribed Dutas 0.5mg, Can i use Dupecia 0.5mg instead? Also is it safe? Because the side effects mentioned are a bit serious Also is it possible to avoid taking it altogether? Since i am already applying minoxidil.

Hi! Dutasteride 0.5 mg can be used for male pattern balding and is relatively safe.

You can consult a Dermatologist personally.
