Silodal D 8mg/0.5mg Capsule 10s

Introduction

Silodal-D 8mg/0.5mg Combipack 20s is prescribed to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in adult males to alleviate urinary symptoms and reduce the risk of acute urinary retention or the need for surgery.

Silodosin is an alpha blocker, while Dutasteride is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. Both work differently but target symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate.

Take the prescribed dosage orally, typically once daily, as directed by a healthcare professional. Consistency in taking these medications regarding meals may be advised but follow the specific instructions given by your doctor.

Adhering to the prescribed dosage and guidance from a healthcare provider is essential for effectively managing benign prostatic hyperplasia with the combination of Silodosin and Dutasteride. If you experience any adverse effects or have concerns, consult your healthcare professional promptly.

How it works

When your prostate gland gets bigger, it can create issues with urination, making it hard to pee and causing frequent or urgent trips to the toilet. It can also slow down urine flow. If not treated, there's a risk of complete blockage. This medicine helps by relaxing muscles in the bladder and prostate, quickly easing symptoms and making urination easier. Follow your prescription precisely for the best results.
