What is Duprost?
Duprost containing the active ingredient dutasteride belongs to a class of medications called 5 alpha reductase inhibitors. The medication works by preventing the conversion of the hormone testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the prostate. It can be used alone or with other medications to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) such as acute urinary retention, a weak stream and the need to urinate frequently or urgently. It may also decrease the risk of needing prostate surgery in the future.

Duprost is usually taken orally once per day or as directed by a doctor. The medication can be taken with or without food but should be taken with a glass of water. Contact a doctor for the correct dosage as it will depend on the patient's condition and their response to the therapy. The capsules should be taken whole and not opened, chewed or crushed.
