Increasing Dutasteride dosage from .5mg to 2.5

[Staticwavves]

I’m currently taking .5mg of dutasteride and have been for about a year but have read 2.5mg is more effective. My doctor won’t increase the dosage due to off label use. Would it be effective to take it every couple of days at a higher dosage or anyway to increase my dosage without having a higher prescription filled?

Is this not the innernet? I tried googling and couldn’t confirm if I should skip a day and double the dose.

Your liver will take a beating. I took 2mg and 2.5mg every other day. Now i have decided to stick to 1.5mg daily when I order more pills online.
