Introduction

Tamdura Capsule PR is a prescription medication used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition characterized by an enlarged prostate gland in men. It contains Tamsulosin and Dutasteride, which work together to improve urinary flow and reduce the symptoms of BPH, such as difficulty in urination, weak stream, and frequent urination.

How it Works

Tamdura Capsule PR combines Tamsulosin, an alpha-blocker, and Dutasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. Tamsulosin relaxes the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, easing urine flow, while Dutasteride reduces prostate size by inhibiting hormone activity that causes prostate growth.
