Dutasteride USP is a synthetic 4-azasteroid compound that acts as a dual 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. It is primarily used in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by preventing the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to prostate growth. Dutasteride is widely used in urology and is sometimes prescribed off-label for androgen-related disorders like hair loss.

Industrial Uses

1. Pharmaceuticals

  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): Dutasteride is primarily used for treating enlarged prostate glands by inhibiting both Type I and II isoforms of the 5α-reductase enzyme, reducing DHT levels and improving urinary symptoms.
  • Combination Therapy: Frequently used in combination with alpha-blockers (e.g., tamsulosin) for enhanced efficacy in BPH management.
  • Androgenetic Alopecia (Off-label): Though not officially approved in many countries, Dutasteride is sometimes prescribed for male pattern baldness due to its potent anti-DHT activity.
