Alfuzosin Prolonged-release Tablets 10mg
Alfuzosin Prolonged-Release Tablets (10mg) is a quinazoline-derivative, functionally uroselective alpha-1 adrenergic antagonist on the WHO Model List framework. It distributes preferential clinical relaxant action to prostatic and trigonal smooth muscle, reducing bladder outlet obstruction without predominantly altering ejaculatory duct innervation, resulting in a very low incidence of retrograde ejaculation (<1-2%). Indicated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and as adjunctive therapy with catheterization for acute urinary retention related to BPH.
Alfuzosin 10mg + Dutasteride 0.5mg Tablets
Alfuzosin (10mg prolonged-release) and Dutasteride (0.5mg) Tablets is a fixed-dose combination combining a functionally uroselective alpha-1 blocker with a dual 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. Alfuzosin relaxes prostatic smooth muscle and decreases bladder outlet resistance without inhibiting alpha-1A subtype exclusively, preserving normal ejaculation in most men. Dutasteride halts DHT-mediated androgenic proliferation, reducing prostate volume. Indicated for symptomatic BPH with enlarged prostate gland.
