Taking Avodart and Discontinuing Propecia – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

I have been on Propecia now for about 4 years. I did get some regrowth and thickening, but everything now has leveled off. Because I would like to get more density in my crown area, I went on .5 mg of Avodart yesterday. When do you think I can discontinue my treatment of Propecia without losing any of those results since I am now on Avodart? Or do you think it is wiser to remain on both drugs? Also, do you think the generic form of Avodart which I think is called Dutagen will have the same benefits? Thank you.

You are asking me questions to which the answers are unknown. I can logically tell you that if you are taking Avodart, there is no need for finasteride anymore. Let me know if you have benefits from the change in medication and if so, when you started to observe it. I have no experience with the generic Avodart, as neither medication is FDA approved for the treatment of hair loss.
