Flowon-D Tablet 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 which helps the prostate gland grow.
Is Flowon-D Tablet effective?
Flowon-D Tablet can be effective when used according to your doctor's instructions. Never stop taking the medication, even if you see symptom improvement. Stopping early might lead to a return or worsening of symptoms.
Can Flowon-D Tablet cause dizziness?
Yes, Flowon-D Tablet can cause dizziness. This is because it contains Tamsulosin and Dutasteride. Tamsulosin may lead to a sudden drop in blood pressure when changing from lying to sitting or standing, which could result in dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, spinning sensations, or vertigo. If you experience dizziness, do not drive or operate machinery; instead, take some time to rest and resume your activity only when you feel better.
What are the cautions regarding the use of Flowon-D Tablet?
Flowon-D Tablet is considered harmful for males under 18 years old because it may affect their reproductive system. It is also potentially harmful for individuals with known allergies to any of the ingredients in the medication and women who are pregnant or have the potential to become pregnant. Additionally, avoid contact with Flowon-D Tablet if you are pregnant as the medicine could be absorbed through the skin, posing a risk to the fetus.

Can the use of Flowon-D Tablet impact my cataract surgery?
Using Flowon-D Tablet may cause floppy eye syndrome. This means the muscles in the iris become loose and the pupil constricts unexpectedly during cataract surgery. As a result, the surgeon might need to dilate the pupil more than usual. However, if you are having cataract surgery, make sure you inform your ophthalmologist (doctor specializing in eye care) about using this medicine or if you used it within the last 9 months.
Apart from taking medicines, what should I do to manage my prostate symptoms?
Lifestyle changes can help you better manage your prostate symptoms. Try to urinate when you first feel a strong urge to go. However, avoid straining or forcing while urinating. Also, try not to consume fluids (especially alcohol, caffeine) for a few hours before bed or going out; avoid medications that could worsen urinary issues as well.
