How to maxamize Dutastride absorption?

[GlasgowCelt]

Hi,

I am thinking of going down the dutasteride 0.5 route and was wondering what I could combine this with to maxamize its effect?

I am currently just using Nizoral 2% and Rogaine 5% but I am going to stop rogaine as it increases my heartrate.

So aside from dutasteride 0.5 and Nizoral, what could I add that would be deemed a growth stimulant and anti-androgen? (I've ordered retin-A) but would you guys recommend something else? What are your experiences on products used in place of rogaine?

I'd appreciate any help. Any guidance as to how to maximise the metabolisation of dutasteride?

Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I'm doing the same, exact same infact, dutasteride and 2% Nizoral and havn't started using minoxidil. and also thinking of something else to add that inhibits DHT.

If I had the money I'd take 2.5mg dutasteride, with half an arimidex a week, too many pills but pretty much guaranteed maintenance for a very long time and decent growth, coz am already a responder.

Drink some grapefruit juice with it

Alright Hammy, thanks for the advice.

I am considering going to dutasteride 2.5 because my hairloss seems very aggressive, and shedding in silly amounts I just want it all to stop.

So what would you recommend taking the 2.5 with?

2.5 Dutasteride
1 Glass of Grapefruit Juice (Would apple juice be a decent alternative?)
1 Arimidex?

Thanks for the input guys!

Apple juice won't do I'm afraid, it has to be grapefruit juice. Although if you're doing 2.5mg a day, I doubt it will make a lot of difference, you're pretty much going to clobber ALL your DHT with 5 dutasteride pills a day.

I would start off with 0.5mg Arimidex EOD to keep the gyno away, then ramp up if you start getting gyno.

Well, the point is that he should be able to cut-back on the expensive dutasteride, if he takes it along with grapefruit juice. For example, 1.5 to 2 mg/day with a tall glass of the juice _may_ be about as effective as 2.5 mg/day without it (I'm just guessing at those numbers).
