What is Avodart and how does it work?

Avodart contains the active ingredient Dutasteride which belongs to a class of medications known as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors (5-ARIs). These medicines work by inhibiting the conversion of Testosterone to Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by the enzyme 5α-Reductase. 

Exposure to DHT causes hair follicles to shrink, weaken, and eventually stop functioning, preventing hair growth. Avodart acts to reduce levels of DHT in the scalp, helping to reverse the balding process and prevent further hair loss.

When taken daily, Avodart can be highly effective in reversing the effects of Male Pattern Baldness. It helps prevent the thinning of hair follicles and is even thought to increase the number of hairs, thereby enhancing the overall appearance.

5-ARIs normally take three to six months of consistent use before any effects are observed and up to one to two years for full hair growth, this is due to the natural growth cycles of hair follicles. 5-ARIs are not a permanent solution to hair loss, so any positive effects will be reversed if treatment is stopped.

Additional Information

How should I take Avodart?

Before taking Avodart, you should read the manufacturer’s printed Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) from inside the pack. It will give you more information about the capsules and provide you with a full list of the side effects which you may experience from taking them.

The recommended dose is one capsule (0.5mg) daily. Capsules should be swallowed whole with water and can be taken on an empty stomach or with a meal. Do not chew or break open the capsule. Contact with the contents of the capsules may make your mouth or throat sore. Taking more than the recommended dose will not increase the effectiveness of treatment.

Male pattern hair loss is a condition that develops over a long period of time. In general, daily use for three to six months may be necessary before you notice any increase in hair density or reduction in hair loss. If you stop taking Avodart, you are likely to lose the hair you have gained within 9 to 12 months.

If you accidently take more Avodart than prescribed, you may experience an increase in side effects and their severity. Contact your doctor if you take more capsules than you should.

Along with their useful effects, most medicines can cause unwanted side effects although not everyone experiences them. The unwanted effects often improve as your body adjusts to the new medicine, but please speak with your doctor or pharmacist if they continue or become troublesome.

Below is a list of the most common and the most serious side effects associated with Avodart. You will find a full list of possible side effects in the Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) supplied with your medicine.

Stop taking Avodart and see your doctor straight away if you experience:

  • Symptoms of an allergic reaction: swelling of your lips, face, tongue, and throat; difficulty swallowing; lumps under your skin (hives) and breathing difficulties
  • You should promptly report to your doctor any changes in your breast tissue such as lumps, pain, enlargement, or nipple discharge as these may be signs of a serious condition, such as breast cancer

 

Common side effects (may affect up to 1 in 10 people)

  • Unable to achieve or maintain an erection (impotence). This may continue after you stop taking Avodart capsules
  • Decreased sex drive (libido). This may continue after you stop taking Avodart capsules
  • Difficulty with ejaculation, such as a decrease in the amount of semen released during sex. This may continue after you stop taking Avodart capsules
  • Breast enlargement or tenderness (gynecomastia)
  • Dizziness when taken with Tamsulosin

Please tell the prescriber if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription. This is because Avodart can affect the way some medicines work, and some medicines can have an effect on Avodart. In the event of a medical emergency, you should tell your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse that you have taken Avodart capsules and when you did.

Do not take Avodart for hair loss if you are already taking Finasteride or Dutasteride for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) or any other condition.

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of the following medicines:

  • Verapamil or Diltiazem (for high blood pressure)
  • Ritonavir or Indinavir (for HIV)
  • Itraconazole or Ketoconazole (for fungal infections)
  • Nefazodone (an antidepressant)

Do not take Avodart:

  • If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to Dutasteride or any of the other ingredients of Avodart (listed in the Patient Information Leaflet supplied with your medication)
  • If you are a woman (because this medicine is for men)
  • If you have a severe liver disease
  • If you are already taking Finasteride or Dutasteride for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) or any other condition

 

Warnings & Precautions

  • You should promptly report to your doctor any changes in breast tissue such as lumps, pain, enlargement, tenderness, or nipple discharge
  • Avodart is excreted in semen and can harm an unborn baby. Use of a condom is recommended if your partner is pregnant or likely to become pregnant
  • Avodart has been shown to decrease sperm count, semen volume, and sperm motility. This could reduce your fertility
  • In a clinical study of men at increased risk of prostate cancer, men taking Dutasteride capsules had a serious form of prostate cancer more often than men who did not take Dutasteride capsules. The effect of Dutasteride capsules on this serious form of prostate cancer is not clear
  • If you have had any illness affecting your liver, please let your prescriber know as you may need some additional check-ups while you are taking Avodart capsules
  • Women of childbearing age should not handle leaking or damaged Avodart capsules
  • Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Avodart if you are going to have a PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) blood test. This is because Avodart can affect the result of this test
