Buy Dutasteride from Loti Labs, your trusted source for research liquids. It is sold in liquid form in mg per ml vials and is intended as a research chemical, not for human consumption.

WHAT IS DUTASTERIDE?

Dutasteride is a synthetic 4-azasteroid compound. It reduces the levels of circulating 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It was also shown to reduce the size of the prostate gland, and improve urinary flow, and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia alone or in combination with tamsulosin. 

The reduction in DHT activity may prevent enlargement of the prostate gland.

STRUCTURE OF DUTASTERIDE

Molecular Formula: C27H30F6N2O2

Molecular weight: 528.5 g/mol

CAS number: 164656-23-9

IUPAC name: (1S,3aS,3bS,5aR,9aR,9bS,11aS)-N-[2,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-9a,11a-dimethyl-7-oxo-1,2,3,3a,3b,4,5,5a,6,9b,10,11-dodecahydroindeno[5,4-f]quinoline-1-carboxamide

MECHANISM OF ACTION

As evident from the clinical studies, Dutasteride competitively and specifically binds to type 1 and 2 isoenzymes of 5 alpha-reductase, forming stable enzyme complexes and inhibiting the conversion of testosterone to 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It may also cause decreases in serum PSA in the presence of prostate cancer.

The type 1 isoenzyme is active in the skin and the liver, while type 2 5 alpha-reductase isoenzyme is active in the reproductive tissues.

The effect of the reduction of DHT by Dutasteride is dose-dependent, with the maximum effect observed within 1-2 weeks following initial administration.
