COMPOSITION:
Tamsulosin (0.4mg) + Dutasteride (0.5mg)DESCRIPTION:
Tambio-D Capsule PR is a prescription medicine used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men, also known as an enlarged prostate. It contains a combination of Tamsulosin and Dutasteride. Tamsulosin is an alpha-blocker that helps relax the muscles of the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate. Dutasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that reduces the size of the enlarged prostate over time. Together, they provide effective and long-lasting relief from BPH symptoms like frequent urination, weak urine stream, and urgency.
