Benefits of FLOMAX
FLOMAX is the first prescription medication developed specifically for BPH. For many men, FLOMAX improves male urinary symptoms due to BPH in as little as one week. And it has been shown to maintain long-term symptom relief. In fact, FLOMAX is the #1 branded prescription medication for BPH.
If you are one of the many men who experience improvements in urinary symptoms, you may feel more comfortable taking long drives, going fishing or golfing without worrying about constant pit stops. You also may find you're less likely to wake up as often at night to go to the bathroom.

Important Safety Information
Flomax® (tamsulosin HCl) capsules is approved to treat male urinary symptoms due to BPH, an enlarged prostate. Only your
doctor can tell if you have BPH, not a more serious condition like prostate cancer. When taking FLOMAX, avoid driving or hazardous tasks
until you know how FLOMAX will affect you, especially after your first dose or change in dose, as a sudden drop in blood pressure may
occur, rarely resulting in fainting. Tell your doctor about all medications you take. If considering cataract surgery, tell your eye
surgeon if you've taken FLOMAX. Common side effects are runny nose, dizziness, and decrease in semen.
Before taking FLOMAX capsules, please see the full Prescribing Information and Patient Information.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
