Product Description

Urimax 0.4mg capsule for oral administration contains Tamsulosin HCL 0.4mg. It treats signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

BPH is a condition that refers to an enlarged prostate, and it occurs only in men. After age 50, most men develop enlarged prostates. As the size of the prostate increases, it may gradually restrict the flow of urine and ultimately lead to BPH symptoms.  Tamsulosin decreases contraction in the smooth muscle of the prostatic capsule by adhering to alpha1-adrenergic receptors. This causes decreased prostatic hyperplasia symptoms such as urinary urgency, hesitancy, and nocturia. The medicine causes the prostate and bladder neck muscles to relax, resulting in improved urine flow and reduced BPH symptoms. The capsules are not for women and children. Treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia should be continued as prescribed by the doctor.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms include:

     –    Frequent and urgent urge to urinate

     –    More often visit to toilet at night

     –    Facing trouble while initiating or starting to pee

     –    Weak urine flow (i.e., that starts and stops)

     –    Dribbling of urine

     –    Unable to empty the bladder fully
