Understanding male urinary symptoms due to BPH
If you suspect you have male urinary symptoms due to BPH, you may wonder how it happened. The fact is, your body changes over the years, and changes in your prostate are most likely responsible for your symptoms. So, to find out more about male urinary symptoms is to find out more about your prostate. Learn about the prostate's role in affecting urinary health and how to talk to someone about your male urinary symptoms. Of course, there's more to know, too: Find out what BPH is — along with its symptoms. Complete the American Urological Association (AUA) Symptom Index for BPH and take it to your doctor to discuss during your next visit.
Important Safety Information
Only your doctor can tell if you have BPH, not a more serious condition
like prostate cancer. Avoid driving or hazardous tasks for 12 hours after
your first dose or increase in dose, as a sudden drop in blood pressure
may occur, rarely resulting in fainting. If considering cataract surgery,
tell your eye surgeon 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.
