Tamlocept D Strip Of 15 Capsules Description
Tamlocept D capsule is used in the management of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH, also called benign prostatic hyperplasia). It is a common condition in older men where there is an enlargement of t
he prostate gland. A few common symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy include incomplete emptying of the bladder, trouble passing urine, frequent need to pass urine and a weak urine flow. Tamlocept D capsule contains a combination of tamsulosin and dutasteride as active ingredients. It works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and urethra (the tube that carries urine outside the body) and helping in reducing the size of the enlarged prostate. Take Tamlocept D capsule in the exact dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take more than the recommended dose. Before taking this medicine, inform your doctor about your complete medical history. Also, inform the doctor about all other medicines and supplements you take. Tamlocept D capsule is not recommended for use in children below 18 years of age. This medicine is not meant to be used for the prevention of prostate cancer.
