DUTASTERIDE PHASE 2 HAIR COUNTS COMPARED TO FINASTERIDE
After six months of treatment, the hair counts measured in a 1 inch diameter circle increased by about ~96 hairs with 0.5mg Dutasteride, compared to about ~72 hairs with 5mg Finasteride. The hair counts increased significantly with an increase in dosage with the biggest gain being ~108 hairs with a dose of 2.5mg Dutasteride. So compared to 5mg Finasteride (Proscar), 2.5 mg Dutasteride grew about 1.5 times as many hairs. This is why there is so much excitement surround Dutasteride. However, there are still unknown questions about increased side effects compared to Finasteride. The Phase III study should tell much more. |
