The "half-life" of Avodart depends to a considerable extent on how much dutasteride you take. When you take the full, recommended dose every day (0.5 mg/day), the half-life can last as long as 4-5 weeks. But if you take a smaller amount (like 0.1 mg/day, for example), its half-life may only be around 2 or 3 days.

It means that it continues to help suppress the formation of DHT for a while, even after you stop taking the dutasteride.

Drug's half life is determined by finding out how long it takes Dutasteride (Avodart) to be eliminated from blood plasma by one half of its strength. This means that if you take 5mg of Dutasteride, 240 hours later you will still have 2.5mg of Dutasteride in your body, and 1.25mg, 240 hours after that. After 1 month there will still be 0.625mg present in your body.
