About Sildura 4 Capsule Combipack
Sildura 4 Capsule Combipack is used to treat the symptoms of an enlarged prostate gland (benign prostatic hyperplasia - BPH) in men. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a condition in which there is an enlargement of the prostate gland due to the multiplication of the cells, mostly in men above 50 years of age.
Sildura 4 Capsule Combipack contains ‘Silodosin’ that works by blocking the receptors (alpha 1) located in the prostate, bladder and urethra (urine pipe), thereby relaxing the muscles of the bladder and prostate gland.
Sildura 4 Capsule Combipack may cause side effects such as dizziness, diarrhoea, stuffy nose, and sudden lowering in blood pressure. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
You are advised to take Sildura 4 Capsule Combipack for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. Take this medication by mouth with or as directed by your doctor. Your physician will decide the dose of the medicine based on the severity of your condition.
