Brief Answer:
Dutamax is safe when taken under guidance dermatologist.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic forum.
Thank you for your query.
I can understand your concern regarding side effects of dutamax.
I also prescribe Dutasteride to my patients. It is very effective in hair loss treatment. It is very well tolerated in most of my patients.
Most of the people who read side effects have same query in their mind mainly about sexual side effects. It occurs rarely. You need to consult your dermatologist when you feel something abnormal.
You have to avoid it if you are planning for next baby in 6 month or if you feel sexual dysfunction.
Good thing is that side effects of the dutasteride is temporary, as soon as you stop medicine, it starts disappearing.
So I advise to go with your dermatologist prescription. You will get result in 2-3 months.
I hope I have answered your question.
Let me know if you have any query.
Regards
