The MOA is the same, but like Ken said, dutasteride blocks 5AR Type 1 in addition to Type 2. However, don't even think about using dutasteride. It decreases the DHT level by more than 90%, and it has a half life of 5 weeks!Rawtashk said:Ken1983 said:As far as i understand dutasteride blocks both types of dht, where as finasteride block one type. I don't understand how blocking both types would cause less side effects - i don't understand the logic of that. Maybe i'm missing something...Rawtashk said:Have you tried getting some dutasteride and quartering it? There have been several people who've reported sided on finasteride but none on dutasteride. Might we worth a shot if you're that desperate to keep your hair.
I'm not a doctor, so I'm not sure either. I'm guessing that it's because the mechanism of action is different.
