Supply
Dutasteride is an oral capsule that lowers dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the hormone that drives follicle miniaturization in pattern hair loss. Unlike finasteride, it inhibits both forms of the enzyme that produces DHT, so it reduces the hormone through a broader mechanism.
It is often considered by men focused on hair loss who have discussed DHT-reduction options with a provider and want an alternative approach within the same treatment class. The goal is the same: slow ongoing loss and support follicles that are still capable of producing hair.
Dutasteride is prescribed and monitored by a licensed clinician as part of an individualized plan. OpenDoseRx treatments are dispensed only after a licensed provider reviews your health intake and determines a prescription is appropriate for you.
