Tamsulosin is a medication used to treat symptoms of an enlarged prostate gland in men. It helps relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate.
Common side effects may include dizziness, headache, runny nose, and abnormal ejaculation.
Considerations:
Take doses at the same time each day. Take missed doses as soon as remembered, unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double dose.
Tamsulosin may cause a drop in blood pressure, leading to dizziness or fainting. Caution should be exercised while driving or operating machinery.
Before undergoing any surgery, including dental procedures, it is crucial to inform the healthcare provider about Tamsulosin use.
Tamsulosin is specifically for men and should not be used by women or children.
