Uromax Capsule 0.4 mg contains Tamsulosin Hydrochloride, an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor blocker used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men. BPH is a common condition in older men characterized by an enlarged prostate gland, leading to urinary symptoms such as difficulty starting urination, weak urine stream, frequent urination, and incomplete bladder emptying.

Tamsulosin works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, improving urine flow and reducing symptoms associated with BPH. Unlike 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, Tamsulosin does not shrink the prostate but provides rapid relief from urinary obstruction, making it suitable for symptomatic management.

Uromax Capsule is typically prescribed as a long-term therapy under medical supervision to maintain improved urinary function and quality of life.

Composition

Each capsule contains:
Tamsulosin Hydrochloride – 0.4 mg

Indications

Uromax Capsule 0.4 mg is indicated for:

• Relief of urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)

• Improvement of urine flow and reduction of incomplete bladder emptying

• Management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) caused by prostate enlargement

Mechanism of Action

Tamsulosin selectively blocks alpha-1 adrenergic receptors in the smooth muscle of the prostate and bladder neck. This action:

• Relaxes the muscles around the prostate and urethra

• Reduces resistance to urine flow

• Alleviates urinary symptoms such as hesitancy, weak stream, and frequent urination

The selective action minimizes effects on blood pressure compared to non-selective alpha blockers.

• The usual dose is 0.4 mg once daily, taken approximately 30 minutes after the same meal each day.

• Capsules should be swallowed whole with water; do not crush or chew.

• Inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney impairment.

• Not recommended for use in women or children.
