About Dutalfa Combipack
Dutalfa Combipack is used to treat an enlarged prostate gland. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate gland) is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland caused by the overproduction of a dihydrotestosterone hormone in men.
Dutalfa Combipack contains Alfuzosin and Dutasteride. Alfuzosin makes it easy to pass urine by relaxing the prostate gland muscles. Dutasteride reduces the enlarged prostate gland's size and relieves urinary incontinence symptoms.
The most common side effects of Dutalfa Combipack are dizziness, lightheadedness, drowsiness, sexual problems, runny/stuffy nose, reduced amount of semen/sperm, testicle pain/swelling, increased breast size, or breast tenderness. If the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
