ALFUGEM D 10

Description

ALFUGEM D 10 is a highly effective medication that combines Alfuzosin SR (10mg) and Dutasteride (0.5mg) to manage Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) — a common condition in men where the prostate gland enlarges, leading to urinary difficulties. This dual-action formulation is designed to improve urinary flow, relieve discomfort, and prevent the progression of prostate enlargement. Alfuzosin belongs to a class of drugs called alpha-1 adrenergic blockers, while Dutasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. Together, they target both the immediate symptoms and the underlying cause of prostate enlargement. The sustained-release (SR) formulation ensures a steady effect throughout the day, enhancing patient comfort and compliance. ALFUGEM D 10 is manufactured under stringent quality standards to ensure purity, safety, and long-lasting relief from BPH symptoms, helping men lead a more comfortable and confident life. Uses of ALFUGEM D 10 ALFUGEM D 10 is primarily used for: Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): Helps in reducing the symptoms caused by prostate gland enlargement in men. Improvement in Urine Flow: Relieves urinary obstruction and improves bladder emptying by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck. Prevention of BPH Progression: Dutasteride in the formulation helps in shrinking the enlarged prostate over time, preventing the need for surgical intervention. Relief from Associated Urinary Symptoms: Reduces frequency, urgency, weak urine stream, and night-time urination (nocturia). Benefits of ALFUGEM D 10 1. Dual Mechanism of Action: Combines the immediate symptom relief of Alfuzosin with the long-term prostate size reduction of Dutasteride, ensuring comprehensive management of BPH. 2. Improves Urinary Flow and Comfort: Relaxes the smooth muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate and reducing strain. 3. Prevents Disease Progression: By reducing dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, Dutasteride helps shrink the prostate and prevents further enlargement. 4. Reduces Risk of Acute Urinary Retention: Helps in preventing sudden inability to urinate, a common complication in men with untreated BPH. 5. Minimizes Need for Surgery: Long-term use can significantly lower the risk of surgical procedures related to prostate enlargement. 6. Sustained Relief with Once-Daily Dose: The sustained-release formulation of Alfuzosin ensures continuous symptom control throughout the day with just one tablet. 7. Enhances Quality of Life: Relieves discomfort, improves sleep quality, and allows better daily functioning by reducing urinary disturbances. Dosage Recommended Dosage: ALFUGEM D 10 is usually taken once daily, preferably after the same meal each day, as food enhances its absorption.
