Product Description

Tamsulosin is a subtype-selective alpha(1A)- and alpha(1D )-adrenoceptor antagonist. alpha(1)-Receptors predominate in the prostate gland, prostatic capsule, prostatic urethra and bladder, and the relaxation of prostate and bladder smooth muscles is associated with improved maximal urine flow (Q(max)) and alleviation of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).  (Sourced from: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11950378/)
