AVODART
Generic Name: dutasteride (dew TAH steh ride) Brand Names: Avodart
Take Avodart capsules by mouth. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Swallow the capsules whole with a drink of water. You can take this medicine with or without food. Take your doses at regular intervals. Do not take your medicine more often than directed. Contact your pediatrician or health care professional regarding the use of this medicine in children. Special care may be needed. Avodart can reduce the size of the prostate gland in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The prostate is a part of the male reproductive system that produces a milky fluid for sperm. Over the age of 50 most men develop an enlarged prostate. As the prostate gets bigger it can restrict the flow of urine. Avodart can help to reduce symptoms caused by BPH such as a weak or interrupted urine flow; a feeling that the bladder is not completely empty; a need to pass urine more often, especially at night; an urgent feeling that you must pass urine right away; a delay or hesitation when you start to urinate. Avodart also reduces the risk of the need for BPH-related surgery. While some men have fewer problems and symptoms after 3 months of treatment, at least 6 months is usually necessary to see if Avodart will work for you. Avodart is not for use in women. Generic Avodart capsules are not yet available.  Avodart comes as a capsule to take by mouth. It is usually taken once a day with or without food. To help you remember to take Avodart, take it around the same time every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Avodart exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the capsules whole; do not split, chew, or crush them. |

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for the next regularly scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and take the next one as directed. Do not take a double dose of this medication. Stop taking Avodart and seek emergency medical attention if you experience a rare allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of the throat; swelling of the lips, tongue, or face; or hives). Other, less serious side effects have been reported but may resolve with continued treatment. Continue to take Avodart and notify your doctor if you experience: decreased libido (sex drive); decreased amount of semen released during sex; impotence (trouble getting or keeping an erection); breast tenderness or enlargement. Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome. Do not donate blood until at least 6 months after your final dose of Avodart. This will prevent giving Avodart to a pregnant female through a blood transfusion. Contact your prescriber or health care professional if there is no improvement in your symptoms. You may need to take Avodart for 6 to 12 months to get the best results. Avodart is not for use in females. Females who are pregnant or may get pregnant must not handle Avodart capsules. If a woman who is pregnant gets enough Avodart into her body after swallowing it or through her skin after handling it, the medication could harm the unborn baby, particularly if the baby is male. If a pregnant woman comes into contact with Avodart capsules she should check with her health care professional. Avodart may interfere with PSA laboratory tests for prostate cancer. If you are scheduled to have a lab test for prostate cancer, tell your prescriber or health care professional that you are taking Avodart. Keep Avodart in the container it came in, tightly closed, and out of reach of children. Store it at room temperature and away from excess heat and moisture (not in the bathroom). Throw away any medication that is outdated or no longer needed. Talk to your pharmacist about the proper disposal of your medication. Many drugs may affect the way that Avodart is metabolized ("broken down") in the body, leading to higher or lower than expected levels of the medication in the blood. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines, including vitamins, minerals, and herbal products, during treatment with Avodart.
