Tamsulosin

Each Tamsulosin capsule contains 400 micrograms of tamsulosin hydrochloride as the active ingredient. The capsule also includes additional components such as microcrystalline cellulose, methacrylic acid-ethyl acrylate copolymer, polysorbate 80, and talc. These components play a role in the formulation and stability of the medication.

Common side effects of Tamsulosin may include dizziness, headache, and abnormal ejaculation. However, some serious side effects that require immediate medical attention can occur, such as priapism (prolonged and painful erection) or signs of a severe allergic reaction like rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing. If you experience any of these serious side effects, seek medical help right away. Frequency unknown: Depression.

Before taking Tamsulosin, inform your doctor about any medical conditions you have, especially if you have a history of low blood pressure or liver disease. It's essential to mention all the medications you are currently taking to avoid potential interactions. Do not use Tamsulosin if you are allergic to tamsulosin or any other ingredients in the medication. Women and children should not take Tamsulosin, as it is intended for adult men with specific urinary issues. If you have certain heart conditions or are on medications like blood thinners, consult your healthcare provider before starting Tamsulosin.
