Dutasteride (Avodart)

Dutasteride is a bodybuilding drug that, while taking steroids, helps reduce the effects of dihydrotestosterone and its side effects (baldness, acne), but does not reduce the anabolic effect of testosterone.

Dosage

The recommended dose of Avodart is one capsule (0.5 mg) once a day by mouth. The capsules should be swallowed whole, do not chew, do not open, because the contents of the capsule can cause irritation of the mucous membrane of the oropharynx. Capsules can be taken without regard to meals.
