Dutasteride or Finasteride?

[Henkeh91]

As topic says.

I've seen somewhere that 0,1mg dutasteride have the same effect as 5mg finasteride. Does that mean that dutasteride got increased risk of sides than finasteride?

Scroll all the way down to where it says Adverse Reactions in big bold letters. That is for Dutasteride only, though.

The doctor who prescribed dut to me said the sides tend to be more severe when they come up. Not sure what he based this on but it would make sense.
