Uronex-D Capsule PR is a combination of two medicines that work in different ways to treat men with an enlarged prostate gland. Uronex-D Capsule PR may be taken with or without food but it should be taken at the same time each day. Your doctor will prescribe the dose most suitable for you. To gain the most benefit and to treat your symptoms effectively you should not miss doses even if you feel well.

Uronex-D Capsule PR is a combination of two medicines: Tamsulosin and Dutasteride. 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 Uronex-D Capsule PR effective?
Uronex-D Capsule PR is effective when used in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. It is essential to complete the full course of treatment as directed by your doctor, even if you experience improvement in your condition. Stopping the medication too early may lead to a recurrence or worsening of symptoms.
Can the use of Uronex-D Capsule PR cause dizziness?
Yes, Uronex-D Capsule PR may cause dizziness due to its active ingredients, Tamsulosin and Dutasteride. Tamsulosin can cause a sudden fall in blood pressure, leading to dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and vertigo. If you experience dizziness or lightheadedness, avoid driving or operating machinery and rest until the symptoms resolve.

Uronex-D Capsule PR is contraindicated in men under 18 years old, as it may affect the normal development of the male reproductive tract.
