My doctor prescribed me duman (dutasteride) 0.5 mg tabs for male pattern hair loss. He prescribed me one tab on alternate days with a total of 15 tabs for a month. My one month of tablets are over. Should I visit the doctor and is my dosage going to be increased or should I just get my prescription refilled by a pharmacist.
