Description:
Silodal 4 Capsule is an alpha-adrenergic antagonist used in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It helps alleviate urinary symptoms such as difficulty in passing urine but does not reduce the actual size of the prostate. The medication should be taken as prescribed by your doctor, ideally with food and at the same time each day to maintain a consistent level in the body. The capsule should be swallowed whole without crushing or chewing. Do not stop taking the medicine without consulting your doctor, as doing so may worsen your symptoms. Completing the full course of treatment ensures better effectiveness.
Common side effects may include retrograde ejaculation, dizziness, diarrhea, orthostatic hypotension, headache, nasopharyngitis, and nasal congestion. If any of these persist or become bothersome, seek medical advice promptly.
To better manage your symptoms, consider adopting simple lifestyle changes such as urinating as soon as you feel the urge—without straining—and avoiding caffeine and alcohol, especially at night or before outings.
Before starting Silodal 4, inform your doctor about any other medications you’re taking and any existing health conditions. If you’re scheduled for eye surgery due to cataracts or glaucoma, let your eye specialist know you are using this medicine. People with liver or kidney issues should use this medication with caution and attend regular follow-up appointments as recommended by their doctor.
