Popular Questions

What's the differeence between Duta and Fina?

These are both DHT blockers but dutasteride is a little bit stronger. Talk with your clinician about which one is right for you.

Can I take this in addition to spiro?

Some people take dutasteride with spironolactone if they've already experienced a lot of hair loss or are concerned about scalp hair loss specifically since this medication focuses specifically on hair follicles.

Is this going to help me regrow hair?

No. This will only prevent further scalp hair loss but cannot help you regrow hair you've already lost.
