$50.00
Tamdura Capsules are a combination medication containing Tamsulosin and Dutasteride, used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men. Tamsulosin works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder, making it easier to urinate, while Dutasteride helps to shrink the enlarged prostate gland. This medication is specifically designed to improve urinary flow, reduce the risk of acute urinary retention, and decrease the need for prostate surgery. Each Tamdura Capsule contains Tamsulosin 0.4mg and Dutasteride 0.5mg, and should be taken orally once a day with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting this medication to determine if it is suitable for your individual health needs.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
Medicinal Benefits
Tamdura Capsule 10’s contains tamsulosin (alpha-blockers) and dutasteride (5-alpha reductase inhibitor), primarily in treating the enlarged prostate gland. As the gland enlarges, it can lead to urinary problems, such as difficulty passing urine and a frequent urination urge. Dutasteride lowers the production of dihydrotestosterone hormone, which leads to a decrease in the size of the prostate and, as a result, relieves the symptoms. This will reduce the risk of acute urinary retention and the need for surgery. Tamsulosin makes it easy to pass urine by relaxing the muscles of the gland. Collectively, both of them improve the symptoms of Benign Hyperplasia Prostate (BPH).
