community Why is dutasteride's volume of distribution so much bigger than finasteride? Is it more lipophilic and crosses barriers better?
Dutasteride has a larger volume of distribution than finasteride due to its lipophilic nature, allowing it to concentrate in hydrophobic areas and making it difficult to excrete. A user experiencing hair loss has been using oral finasteride for 10 months with minimal regrowth and is considering switching to dutasteride or adding oral minoxidil.
