What Is The Active Ingredient In Flomax Relief MR And How Does It Work?:
Each Flomax Relief capsule contains the active ingredient tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.4mg, which is the same dose as in the prescription. It is an alpha-adrenoceptor antagonist, also called an alpha-blocker. The drug works by relaxing the muscles surrounding the urethra, which allows a more normal urinary flow.When Should I Take Flomax Relief MR?You should take one capsule of Flomax Relief a day. Tamsulosin is absorbed from the intestine and its absorption is reduced by a recent meal. Therefore, to maintain constant plasma levels, you should take your daily dose of Flomax after the same meal each day.Are There Any Side-Effects Associated With Flomax Relief MR?Adverse Effects include:- Common: dizziness.
- Uncommon: headache, palpitations, postural hypotension, rhinitis, constipation, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, rash, pruritus, urticaria, abnormal ejaculation, asthenia.
- Rare: syncope, angioedema.
- Very rare: priapism. Drowsiness, blurred vision, dry mouth or oedema can occur. IFIS (intraoperative floppy iris syndrome) has occurred in some patients during cataract surgery.
