I think that because of half life issues, if you take dutasteride twice a week, you should first take it every day for a few weeks just to build it up a bit in your system. I doubt 2x per week would build up enough to ever be effective. The guys doing 0.1mg per day actually took 0.1mg per day, not 0.5mg every 5 days.
I think taking an Avodart every day for only three or four consecutive days would be MORE than enough for that specific purpose, if it's even necessary at all. I have my doubts about that.
And it would be fascinating if Gisleskog
et al had done one of their graph simulations on that last scenario (0.1 mg/day, versus 0.5 mg every 5 days), so that we wouldn't have to guesstimate how those dosing schemes would compare.
