Description
Avodart 0,5 mg GSK — dutasteride from GSK at 0.5 mg. Dual 5α-reductase inhibitor (types I + II). ~90% DHT reduction vs finasteride‘s ~70%. 5-week half-life — effects build and wash out slowly.
Key Benefits
- 5α-reductase type-I AND type-II inhibitor — more complete than finasteride
- Suppresses scalp DHT ~95% (vs finasteride ~70%)
- Clinical standard for more aggressive androgenic-alopecia cases
- Oral once-daily; long half-life
- Not effective against DHT-derivative AAS (tren, masteron, oxandrolone)
- Each unit dosed at 5 mg — see Recommended Dosage below for protocol-specific intake
Recommended Dosage
Clinical dosing: 0.5 mg/day for hair-loss prevention / BPH. Loading not required — steady-state develops over 3–6 months due to long half-life. Some hair-loss protocols dose every other day to reduce cost.
How It Works
Dual 5α-reductase inhibitor (both type I and type II isoforms). More comprehensive DHT suppression than finasteride (type II only). Oral bioavailability ~60%, extensive protein binding.
Pharmacokinetics
Plasma half-life approximately 5 weeks — extremely long. Once-daily dosing but steady-state takes 3–6 months. Tissue DHT suppression persists weeks after discontinuation.
Potential Side Effects
Sexual side-effects (libido drop, ED) similar rate to finasteride. Post-finasteride syndrome documented but rare. Gynecomastia rare but possible. Does NOT protect against DHT-derivative AAS — separate mechanism.
Cycle & Stacking Guide
Long-term use for hair protection during testosterone-based cycles. Pointless alongside tren, masteron, oxandrolone, or winstrol — those bypass 5α-reductase entirely.
Manufacturer Notes
GSK is an independent producer in the research-compound market. Before first use, request the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis and confirm the vial’s tamper-evident seal is intact.
Storage & Handling
Store at recommended temperature (15–25°C; peptides and HGH at 2–8°C after reconstitution). Protect from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children. For research and educational purposes only.
