Benefits of Urimax D Tablet MR
In Treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia
When your prostate gland becomes enlarged, it can cause urinary problems such as difficulty passing urine and a need to go to the toilet frequently or urgently. It can also cause urine flow to be slower. If not treated, there is a risk that your urine flow will be completely blocked. Urimax D Tablet MR helps reduce the size of your prostate by blocking the production of a hormone that causes it to grow. It also relaxes the muscles in the bladder and prostate. This helps relieve the symptoms and makes it easier for you to urinate.

How Urimax D Tablet MR works
Urimax D Tablet MR is a combination of two medicines: Tamsulosin and Dutasteride, which relieves the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Tamsulosin is an alpha-blocker. It works by relaxing the muscle around the bladder exit and prostate gland so as to allow easy passage of urine. Dutasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, which helps in shrinking the prostate gland by decreasing the level of the hormone that helps the prostate gland grow.
