WHAT DUTASTERIDE/TAMSULOSIN DIAGONALIS IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
DUTASTERIDE/TAMSULOSIN DIAGONALIS IS USED TO TREAT MEN WITH AN
ENLARGED PROSTATE
(
_benign prostatic hyperplasia_
) - a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland, caused by
producing too much of a hormone called dihydrotestosterone.
Dutasteride/Tamsulosin
Diagonalis
is
a
combination
of
two
different
medicines
called
dutasteride and tamsulosin.
Dutasteride
belongs
to
a
group
of
medicines
called
_5-alpha _
_reductase _
_inhibitors_
and
tamsulosin belongs to a group of medicines called
_alpha-blockers_
.
As the prostate grows, it can lead to urinary problems, such as
difficulty in passing urine and
a need to go to the toilet frequently. It can also cause the flow of
the urine to be slower and
less forceful. If left untreated, there is a risk that your urine flow
will be completely blocked
(
_acute urinary retention_
). This requires immediate medical treatment. Sometimes surgery is
necessary to remove or reduce the size of the prostate glan
