Description

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics:

Tamsulosin HCl is a selective alpha-1 adrenergic receptor antagonist that acts specifically on the alpha-1A and alpha-1D subtypes found in the prostate. By blocking these receptors, tamsulosin relaxes the smooth muscle in the prostate gland, bladder neck, and urethra, thereby relieving urinary obstruction and improving urinary flow. The sustained-release (SR) pellets ensure a controlled release of the medication over time, providing continuous relief of BPH symptoms.

Drug Classification:

Tamsulosin HCl is classified as an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor antagonist. It is indicated for the treatment of signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), including urinary hesitancy, weak stream, incomplete bladder emptying, and urinary frequency or urgency.

Formulations:

Our Tamsulosin HCl SR Pellets are formulated as capsules, each containing 0.4mg of tamsulosin hydrochloride. The sustained-release pellets are designed to provide prolonged efficacy and convenience for patients, allowing for once-daily dosing.

Signs and Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): Including urinary hesitancy, weak stream, incomplete bladder emptying, and urinary frequency or urgency.

Usage:

Tamsulosin HCl SR Pellets should be taken orally with water, preferably 30 minutes after the same meal each day to enhance absorption and minimize the risk of orthostatic hypotension. It is important to swallow the capsules whole and not crush or chew them. Patients should continue taking tamsulosin as prescribed by their healthcare provider, even if they experience symptomatic relief.

The recommended dosage of Tamsulosin HCl SR Pellets is one capsule (0.4mg) taken once daily. Dosing adjustments may be necessary based on individual patient response and tolerability. Patients should follow their healthcare provider’s instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
