About MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN

MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN is used for the treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) complicated by overactive bladder with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine), urgency, and frequency. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a condition in men that causes enlargement of the prostate gland.

MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN contains Mirabegron and Silodosin. Mirabegron works by reducing the activity of an overactive bladder and treats related symptoms. Silodosin works by relaxing the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland. Thus, it makes it easier to pass urine and helps relieve urinary symptoms.

Take MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN as prescribed. Your doctor will advise you on how often you should take it based on your medical condition. MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN may cause common side effects such as abnormal ejaculation, increased heart rate, dizziness, nausea, constipation, urinary tract infections, and runny or blocked nose. Most of these side effects of MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Mirabegron, Silodosin, or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN is not recommended for children and adolescents under 18 years of age. Drive only if you are alert after taking MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN, as it may cause dizziness. If you are about to undergo cataract eye surgery, inform your eye specialist that you are taking MIRABEGRON+SILODOSIN, as it may cause complications during the surgery.

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH): It is a condition in men in which age-related prostate gland enlargement occurs, which may cause urination difficulty. It occurs when the prostate gland's cells start to multiply. Your prostate gland swells due to these extra cells, which squeeze the urethra and decrease urine flow. The exact cause is unknown, but age-related changes in male sex hormones may be a factor. Any testicular abnormalities or a family history of prostate issues could increase the risk of developing BPH. The symptoms include excessive urination at night, dribbling (to move downwards in a thin flow) after urination, a sense of incomplete bladder emptying, an urge to urinate and leaking, frequent urination and a weak urinary stream.
