to take it when my RT is over.  But obtaining it seems to be not so easy.
We can get it online as a concentrate, but how much of the concentrate do
you use to obtain the equivalent of 8 ounces of whole ...

Thanks to all for your replies regarding my anxiety about taking Flomax.  I
am happy to say that there was no reaction to it and I am feeling fine.  I
