community Dutasteride is possibly BETTER for the brain than Finasteride
Dutasteride may be better for the brain than Finasteride, potentially increasing dopamine levels and causing fewer side effects. For those switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride to prevent hair loss, it's recommended to continue Finasteride for 3-4 months while starting Dutasteride to avoid shedding due to Dutasteride's long half-life.
