About Tammislin Tablet
Tammislin Tablet is an alpha-blocker used primarily to treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), also known as an enlarged prostate, and urinary bladder outlet obstruction. Tammislin Tablet does not cure prostate cancer but helps manage the symptoms caused by BPH, such as difficulty passing urine and frequent urination. BPH is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland caused by excessive production of the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which can obstruct urine flow.
Tammislin Tablet contains Tamsulosin, an alpha-blocker that works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate gland and the urinary bladder neck at the obstruction site. This helps improve urine flow, relieving the symptoms of BPH, such as difficulty in urinating and frequent urination.
Common side effects include low blood pressure (hypotension), dizziness, drowsiness, reduced libido, impotence, breast tenderness or enlargement in men, insomnia, runny nose, and ejaculatory problems. These side effects typically improve with continued use, but if they persist, consult your doctor.
Tammislin Tablet is not suitable for women or children. Before starting the medication, inform your doctor if you have low blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, or any heart problems. Tammislin Tablet can pass into semen, so it is advised to use a condom during sexual intercourse, especially if your partner is pregnant. Do not donate blood while taking Tammislin Tablet , but you can donate 6 months after your last dose. Patients taking Tammislin Tablet should be cautious when driving or operating machinery due to potential dizziness or drowsiness. In rare cases, if you experience prolonged issues with erection, ejaculation, or pain in the penis, contact your doctor immediately.
