What is Avodart?

Avodart (dutasteride) is a prescription drug used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and improve urinary flow in men with an enlarged prostate. It works by preventing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.

Always follow your doctor’s instructions and use Avodart exactly as prescribed.

• Take with a full glass of water, with or without food.
• Swallow capsule whole. Do not chew, crush, or open, as the contents of an Avodart capsule can irritate the mouth and throat.
• Store away from moisture and heat. Capsules may leak or stick together if they get too hot.
• It may take between three and six months to notice an improvement in your symptoms.

While taking Avodart, your doctor will do frequent blood work to test PSA levels.

Women and children should not take Avodart or handle the capsules. Birth defects may be caused if a pregnant woman is exposed to this drug.

You should not donate blood while taking Avodart and for six months after you stop taking it.

Avodart may increase your risk of developing prostate cancer.

Before taking Avodart, inform your doctor if you take the following medications:

• Conivaptan
• Imatinib
• Isoniazid
• Antibiotics
• Antifungals
• Antidepressants
• Heart or blood pressure medications
• HIV/AIDS treatments

Common side effects of Avodart include:

• Decreased sex drive and semen production
• Erectile dysfunction
• Enlarged or tender breasts

Contact your doctor if you experience signs of an allergic reaction, including trouble breathing, hives, or swelling of the face, mouth, or throat.

How long does it take Avodart to work?
