Oral Minoxidil and Dutasteride Dosing

[lebmogger]

How much to take? have heard 2.5 for minox? 5 for dut? but could you go higher or lower or how should I decide?

 

[Adee]

2.5mg dut, 5mg minox
the other way around

 

[LuhManiac]

2.5 - 5 mg Minox
0.5 - 2.5 Dut

 

[lebmogger]

2.5 - 5 mg Minox
0.5 - 2.5 Dut

Ok, thanks. Can you tell me why upper or lower end of that dosing? 0.5 vs 2.5, and 2.5 vs 5, or does it not matter?

The higher you dose the minoxidil, the more you get out of it. 5 mg if you really want to go fast and have more regrowth, but you also likely get more side effects from it. 2.5 mg is most likely enough.

More Dutasteride means more DHT suppression, and 2.5 mg is the peak it means you get the most out of it, but 0.5 mg is also most likely enough.
