About Tamsulin T Capsule

Tamsulin T Capsule belongs to a group of medications known as ‘antimuscarinic (muscarinic receptor blockers)’ and ‘alpha-blockers’. Tamsulin T Capsule is primarily used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an overgrowth of the prostate gland, a gland situated between the bladder and penis. The prostate gland encompasses the urethra and generates a fluid that forms a part of the semen. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is not cancer.

Tamsulin T Capsule contains two medicines: Tolterodine (antimuscarinic), and Tamsulosin (alpha-blocker). Tolterodine works by relaxing the urinary bladder muscles and preventing urgent, frequent, or uncontrolled urination. Tamsulosin (alpha-blocker) primarily treats the enlarged prostate gland leading to urinary problems (like difficulty in passing urine and a frequent urination urge). Together Tamsulin T Capsule works by relaxing the muscle around the bladder exit and prostate gland, so urine is passed more effortlessly. This prevents urgent, repeated, or uncontrolled urination.

Take Tamsulin T Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Tamsulin T Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical conditions. You may experience dryness in the mouth, constipation, blurred vision, ejaculation disorder (ejaculate sperm from the penis), and flushing (sense of warmness in the face, ears, neck, and trunk). Most of these side effects of Tamsulin T Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Before starting Tamsulin T Capsule , please inform your doctor if you have low blood pressure, liver/kidney disease, and heart problems history. If you have myasthenia gravis, and glaucoma then informs your doctor before taking Tamsulin T Capsule . You are also advised to wear a condom while having sexual intercourse especially when your partner is pregnant, as Tamsulin T Capsule is known to pass in semen. Do not donate blood while taking Tamsulin T Capsule . You can donate blood six months after you have taken the last dose of Tamsulin T Capsule . Patients taking Tamsulin T Capsule should be cautioned about driving, operating machinery, or performing hazardous tasks as it can cause drowsiness or dizziness.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH): It is the enlargement of the prostate gland. It is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland caused due to overproduction of dihydrotestosterone hormone in men. After age 50, most men develop an enlarged prostate gland putting pressure on the urinary bladder. It leads to restricted or obstructed urine flow, the urge to urinate frequently (especially at night), and the feeling of not emptying the urinary bladder.
