Information about Flodart Plus Capsule PR
Flodart Plus Capsule is a combination medication typically used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition in which the prostate gland is enlarged. It contains two active ingredients: Tamsulosin and Dutasteride.
composition:
- Tamsulosin: This is an alpha-blocker that helps relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate.
- Dutasteride: This is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that reduces the size of the enlarged prostate by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that causes prostate growth.
Common Uses:
- Relief of urinary symptoms associated with BPH, such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying.
Dosage and Administration:
- The dosage and duration of treatment are determined by a healthcare provider based on the patient's condition and response to treatment.
Side Effects:
Common side effects may include dizziness, decreased libido, ejaculation disorders, and gynecomastia (enlargement of breast tissue in men). More serious side effects can occur but are less common.
Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice and to understand the proper use and potential risks associated with this medication.
