SILODOSIA 8D

Description

Silodosin 8mg, Dutasteride 0.5mg SILODOSIA 8D is a highly effective combination medication formulated with Silodosin (8 mg) and Dutasteride (0.5 mg), specifically designed to treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), also known as enlarged prostate. This dual-action therapy works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the prostate and bladder neck while simultaneously shrinking the enlarged prostate gland, thus improving urinary flow and relieving symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty starting urination, or weak urine stream. Silodosin is a selective alpha-1 adrenergic receptor blocker, which acts quickly to relax the muscles of the prostate and bladder neck, making urination easier. Dutasteride, on the other hand, is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, which gradually reduces the size of the prostate by lowering dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels — a hormone responsible for prostate enlargement. Manufactured with precision and quality, SILODOSIA 8D offers a comprehensive solution for managing BPH symptoms, improving bladder function, and enhancing overall quality of life in men suffering from prostate-related discomfort. Uses SILODOSIA 8D is primarily indicated for the treatment and management of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) in adult men. Its uses include: Relief from Urinary Obstruction: Helps in reducing urinary difficulties such as hesitancy, intermittent flow, or straining during urination. Improvement of Urinary Flow: Relaxes bladder neck muscles and the prostate, promoting a stronger and more consistent urine stream. Reduction in Prostate Size: Dutasteride component helps reduce prostate gland size over time, providing long-term symptom control. Prevention of Disease Progression: Slows down the progression of BPH and reduces the need for surgical intervention. Decreased Nocturia: Reduces frequent nighttime urination, improving sleep and daily comfort. SILODOSIA 8D is not used for the prevention of prostate cancer, but it can help manage BPH-related urinary symptoms that significantly affect daily life. Benefits Dual Mechanism of Action: The combination of Silodosin and Dutasteride targets both the functional and structural causes of BPH, offering faster and long-lasting relief. Improves Urinary Flow: Silodosin quickly relaxes the smooth muscles in the bladder neck and prostate, improving urinary stream and reducing discomfort during urination. Shrinks the Prostate Gland: Dutasteride lowers DHT levels, which helps shrink the enlarged prostate over time and prevent further growth. Reduces Risk of Urinary Retention: Regular use of SILODOSIA 8D lowers the chances of complete urinary blockage, a common complication of untreated BPH. Enhances Quality of Life: By easing urinary symptoms and improving sleep patterns, it allows men to regain comfort and confidence in daily activities. Minimizes the Need for Surgery: Long-term use can significantly reduce the risk of needing surgical procedures related to prostate enlargement. Well-Tolerated and Effective: The combination therapy is clinically proven, safe, and effective when used under proper medical supervision. Dosage Recommended Dosage: The typical dose of SILODOSIA 8D is one capsule once daily, usually taken with or after a meal to enhance absorption and reduce side effects. Method of Administration: Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the capsule. Important Instructions: Take the medication at the same time each day for best results. Do not skip doses; consistency is key for optimal effectiveness. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it’s almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one. Consult your doctor before starting or stopping this medication, as dosage may vary depending on the severity of your condition and overall health.
