Introduction
Neodosin-D Capsule is a combination of two medicines, Silodosin and Dutasteride, that work together to relieve symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Silodosin is an alpha-blocker that relaxes the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland, facilitating easier urine passage. Dutasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that helps shrink the prostate gland by reducing the hormone levels that contribute to its growth. While effective in managing BPH symptoms, it is not intended for the prevention of prostate cancer. Common side effects may include dizziness, blurred vision, and sexual dysfunction. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult a doctor for any concerns.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Neodosin-D Capsule is to be taken with food, approximately 30 minutes after the same meal each day.
How it works
Neodosin-D Capsule combines Silodosin, an alpha-blocker, and Dutasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. Silodosin relaxes the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland, allowing easier urine passage. Dutasteride reduces hormone levels that cause prostate growth, helping to shrink the prostate gland.
Quick Tips
