STATFLO TAB 10.S

About

Statflo Tab is a medication primarily used to treat the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition characterized by an enlarged prostate gland. It belongs to a class of drugs known as alpha-1 adrenergic blockers. By selectively blocking alpha-1 receptors located in the prostate, bladder neck, and urethra, Statflo Tab causes the smooth muscles in these areas to relax. This relaxation helps to improve urinary flow and reduce the obstructive symptoms associated with BPH, such as difficulty initiating urination, weak stream, frequent urination, and incomplete bladder emptying. It provides symptomatic relief, enhancing the quality of life for men affected by BPH without shrinking the prostate gland itself.
