    Who can we believe? So many different answers about Tamsulusin. Even can cause aggressive prostate cancer. Anyone? Have the answers.

    The problem very likely is due to low zinc in the prostate (zinc deficiency) which causes the prostate gland to enlarge in men over 50. Take 25 mg ~ 50 mg for 3 months 90 days and one's prostate should go back to its normal size.
    Doctors won't tell their patients this pertinent information as zinc is readily available at any pharmacy and very very inexpensive as well.
    Tamsulosine / flomax is an utterly useless medication when a person doesn't address the root of the problem.

    I just take once a week. My prostate is 42 in size from the last 5 years.some time I feel urine coming out with jurks just pressing the front portion of urethera. So I take a capsule in this condition. It is wirking at night time with some erection.

    I am taking Dutasteride Tamsulosin HCI at bedtime. No issues with negative ailments (headache, dizziness, etc) probably because sleeping 🙂

    Thank you for the video, my urologist advised me to take Tamsulosin in the evening after food because I suffer with pre syncope and vasovagal syncope which really helps me tolerate it.

    I was getting a very rapid heart beat when I started taking it. It lowers blood pressure. Which makes the heart beat faster. I had to stop taking it. Gave me erections at night

    Made me very dizzy. Unsafe to drive my car. Had to stop taking it. Switched to another medication. It works well and no side effects so far.

    I have been tapering off, without consulting my Dr. The Dr. never told me that losing my eyesight was a possible side effect of Flomax. At first I thought it was my degenerating spinal cord problem but it turns out the blurred vision is a common side effect of Tamsulosin. It gets harder to trust these prescribers at all. I don't anymore. The damage to my left eye seems permanent? the damage to my right eye I am still not sure about. If you are on this drug and you start to notice blurry patches in your field of vision, stop the drug.

    My husbands dr. Prescribed Flomax and Cialis to him. He kept on fainting, he stopped the Flomax because of fainting and it may cause aggressive prostate cancer. Please inform your men of this.

    On my Consultant's advice, I take Tamsulosin 0.4mg, one tablet just after dinner, and little later go to sleep. I've lifetime medical intakes, losatan, Rosuvastatin and Cardiprin. Losatan in the morning and other all 3 , after dinner, before bed.
    What's your opinion about that dear Doctor. Thanks.

      @williamcallahan5218 24 дні тому

      Latest research showing that it contributes to dementia. .... "Tamsulosin (Flomax) is associated with a higher risk of dementia than other medications for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH):"
      This is not a safe drug.

    Hi, what is the difference between the capsule (Zandoz) shown in your video yellow and blue and the Tamsolusin brown pills. I took the capsules with better results. The pills are not so good. Is one of them a generic?

      To minimize side effects like postural hypotension and dizziness, it may be given at night time.
