Testing dutasteride and aloe vera for enlarged prostate
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests if combining dutasteride with aloe vera extract works better than current options to shrink the prostate and improve urine flow. If you have been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate (BPH) and are not taking certain medications, this may be a possibility for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate (BPH) either by exam or imaging

- You are willing to take part in the study
- You have not taken alpha blockers or 5-alpha reductase inhibitors in the past 6 months
