UROXATRAL is prescribed to adult men for the treatment of symptoms of BPH.
UROXATRAL is a medication known as an alpha-blocker. Alpha-blockers work by
relaxing the smooth muscle located at the bladder neck and around the
prostate, relieving symptoms and improving urine flow.
UROXATRAL provides relief that acts fasts and lasts. In clinical studies,
81% of patients achieved symptom relief, with most patients finding relief
within 8 hours of the first dose and maintaining effects through two years.
In clinical trials UROXATRAL was well tolerated with no significant
reductions in blood pressure and low incidence of ejaculatory disfunction
and erectile dysfunction.

This medication is similar to Flomax but it does not reduce the size of the
prostate. You need Avodart for that. One of the side effects of Flomax is a
decrease in semen but retrograde seems unusual. Avodart does have retrograde
as a side effect but that is not something to worry about unless you want
more children.
