Application features

Drivers

Given the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of dutasteride, it does not affect the ability to drive a car and other mechanisms.

Overdose

According to clinical studies, in volunteers, single doses of dutasteride up to 40 mg / day (80 times higher than therapeutic) for 7 days did not cause concern in terms of the safety of their use. In clinical studies, dutasteride was used at a dose of 5 mg/day for 6 months without additional adverse reactions compared with the use of dutasteride at a dose of 0.5 mg/day.

There is no specific antidote, therefore, in case of a possible overdose, symptomatic and supportive therapy is carried out.
