Dutasteride is primarily used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition that affects the prostate gland in men. It helps to relieve urinary symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty starting urination, and weak urine flow.

Common effects of Dutasteride may include a reduction in prostate size, leading to improved urinary flow and fewer symptoms of BPH.

These effects vary from person to person and are not experienced by everyone who takes the medication.
