| Dutasteride (Avodart) | Rx-only — not controlled | Same post-finasteride-spectrum concerns, potentially stronger (broader 5-alpha-reduction blockade); Long half-life — weeks to clear; sides persist longer if they occur | ~$0.40–$2 per capsule grey-market generics |
| Exemestane (Aromasin) | Rx-only — not controlled | Joint pain, low-mood and libido crash if estrogen goes too low; Bone density loss with long use | ~$1–$3 per 25 mg tablet grey-market |
