Description
Product Introduction
Urimax D Tablet MR is a combination of two medications, Tamsulosin and Dutasteride, used to treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), a condition where the prostate gland enlarges, leading to urinary problems. This medicine helps relieve symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urges to urinate, and slower urine flow. Urimax D is not a treatment for prostate cancer.
How it Works:
- Tamsulosin (an alpha-blocker) helps relax the muscles in the bladder and prostate, easing urine flow.
- Dutasteride (a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor) reduces the size of the prostate by blocking the hormone responsible for prostate growth.
Together, these two medications work to alleviate the symptoms of BPH, improving urinary function and reducing discomfort. However, it may take up to 6 months to experience the full benefits.
