I don't know if there is an actual conflict between SP and Dutasteride, but its certainly a bit of a waste of money to take both at the same time.
Dutasteride and Finasteride do a similar job, although Dut suppresses both forms of 5-a reductase whereas Fin inhibits only one, so the Dut may do more for you if you are lucky. OTOH if you had a bad reaction to Fin then be careful and heed any warning signs this time around.
There is a clinical trial that says that 5mg Finasteride is no more effective than 1mg, don't know if the same applies to Dut, but bottom line is don't take more of anything than you actually need - it's a waste of money, doesn't achieve anything and you may have a bad reaction.
