5α-reductase inhibitors can interfere with doping tests by masking banned substances.
research Neonatal finasteride administration decreases dopamine release in nucleus accumbens after alcohol and food presentation in adult male rats
Finasteride given to baby rats reduces dopamine release and increases alcohol consumption in adult males.
research Evaluation of bioequivalence of five 0.1 mg dutasteride capsules compared to one 0.5 mg dutasteride capsule: a randomized study in healthy male volunteers
Taking five small dutasteride capsules is the same as taking one larger capsule.
research RE: EFFECT OF THE DUAL 5α-REDUCTASE INHIBITOR DUTASTERIDE ON MARKERS OF TUMOR REGRESSION IN PROSTATE CANCER
