Silodosin

Uses

Silodosin is used to improve urination in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate) and to relieve symptoms during urination, such as hesitancy, incomplete emptying, weak stream, increased urgency and frequency, and nocturia (increased urination at night).

How it Works

How Silodosin works: Silodosin is an alpha blocker that relaxes the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland, allowing urine to pass more easily.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Silodosin include dizziness, orthostatic hypotension (sudden lowering of blood pressure upon standing), headache, ejaculation disorder, nausea, infection, and abdominal pain.

Expert Advice

  • Silodosin helps relieve the symptoms of an enlarged prostate.
  • It does not reduce the size of the prostate.
  • Silodosin must be taken with food.
  • You may start to feel better within hours or days of initiating treatment.
  • The full effect is typically observed within 2 weeks.
  • Silodosin may cause dizziness or sleepiness.
  • Do not drive or engage in activities requiring concentration until you understand how it affects you.
  • If you are scheduled for eye surgery due to cataracts or glaucoma, inform your eye doctor about your use of Silodosin.
  • Inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney or liver problems.
