CompositionSILOSTRIDE D TABLET 10 is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition where the enlarged prostate gland causes difficulty with urination. It helps improve urine flow and reduces the bothersome symptoms of urgency and nighttime frequency. This medication is essential for reducing the risk of sudden urinary blockage and can help many patients avoid the need for surgical intervention.
This medicine contains Silodosin and Dutasteride. Silodosin is an alpha-blocker that relaxes the muscles of the prostate and bladder neck to improve flow, while Dutasteride is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor that works to actually shrink the size of the prostate over time. Together, they provide both immediate symptom relief and long-term management of the underlying condition.
This tablet should be taken once daily with a meal as prescribed by your doctor. It is important to continue the medication for the full duration, as the prostate-shrinking effects of Dutasteride may take several months to reach their peak. Consult your healthcare provider if you experience dizziness or if you are planning to undergo cataract surgery.
