Finasteride + Tamsulosin

Uses

How Tamsulosin and Finasteride Work Tamsulosin and Finasteride is a combination of two medications that relieve the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Tamsulosin is an alpha-blocker that works by relaxing the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland, allowing for easier passage of urine. Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that helps shrink the prostate gland by decreasing the levels of the hormone that promotes prostate growth.

How it Works

Common side effects of Tamsulosin and Finasteride include impotence, ejaculation disorder, headache, breast tenderness, dizziness, decreased libido, breast enlargement, infection, chest pain, and back pain.
