2 / 2 resultscommunity [PSA] - Do NOT swallow dutasteride capsule content.
Dutasteride capsules should not be bitten or opened due to their foul taste and potential caustic effects. Users shared experiences of accidentally biting capsules and the unpleasant taste, with some suggesting swallowing techniques to avoid this.
community Why is everyone not directly advised Dutasteride?
Dutasteride is less commonly prescribed for hair loss because it is not FDA-approved for this purpose, unlike finasteride, which is more accessible and preferred due to fewer side effects. Dutasteride may be more effective in reducing DHT but has a longer half-life and potentially more significant side effects.
