Tamgress 0.4

About

Tamgress 0.4 contains Tamsulosin, an alpha-1A adrenergic receptor antagonist specifically designed to alleviate the bothersome symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It works by selectively relaxing the smooth muscles located in the prostate gland and the bladder neck, which are often constricted and enlarged in men with BPH, leading to significant urinary difficulties. By relaxing these muscles, Tamsulosin effectively improves urine flow and reduces the lower urinary tract symptoms associated with BPH, such as urinary hesitancy, a weak or interrupted stream, and frequent or urgent urination, especially at night. It does not shrink the prostate itself but effectively alleviates the obstructive symptoms, thereby enhancing the patient's quality of life by improving urinary function without significantly affecting blood pressure in most individuals, making it a targeted treatment for BPH.
