Description
Dutanot Tablet 0.5 mg is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by reducing the size of an enlarged prostate. It contains Dutasteride, which blocks the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone responsible for prostate enlargement. This helps relieve symptoms such as pain, frequent urination, weak urine flow, and difficulty in passing urine. Dutanot Tablet should be taken as prescribed by a doctor, with or without food. Regular use is required for noticeable results. It is not recommended for women and children. Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if you have liver disease or take other medications.
