Composition5 Alpha R D 0.5mg Capsule 10 is used to manage the urinary symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in adult men, helping to reduce prostate size and relieve difficulty in urination, dribbling, weak urine flow and the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. It may take several months to see the full benefit.
It contains dutasteride (0.5 mg), a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor that gradually reduces prostate size by lowering DHT levels. Swallow the capsule whole as prescribed; do not crush or chew.
Keeping to your follow-up appointments and PSA monitoring supports safe treatment alongside this medicine.
This medicine must not be handled by women who are or may become pregnant, as it can be absorbed through the skin and cause harm to a male foetus. PSA levels are reduced; inform your doctor if PSA testing is used for prostate cancer screening. Report new breast lumps or nipple discharge.
