About Finast T Capsule

Finast T Capsule is a combination drug containing 'urinary bladder relaxant' medication, used primarily in treating the enlarged prostate gland. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate gland) is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland caused due to overproduction of a dihydrotestosterone hormone in men. As the gland enlarges, it can lead to urinary problems, such as difficulty passing urine and frequent urination. Finast T Capsule helps in getting relief from these symptoms.

Finast T Capsule contains Tamsulosin (alpha-blockers) and Finasteride (5-alpha reductase inhibitor), primarily used to treat enlarged prostate gland. Tamsulosin makes it easy to pass urine by relaxing the muscles of the prostate gland. On the other hand, Finasteride reduces the enlarged prostate gland's size by lowering the production of dihydrotestosterone hormone, thereby relieving urinary incontinence symptoms and leading to a decrease in the size of the prostate gland. Collectively, both of them improve the symptoms of Benign Hyperplasia Prostate (BPH).

Take Finast T Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Finast T Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending upon your medical condition. The most common side effects of Finast T Capsule are impotence, ejaculation disorder (reduced amount of semen/sperm), breast pain, and low sexual desire. Most of these side effects of Finast T Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Directions for Use

Medicinal Benefits

Finast T Capsule contains tamsulosin (alpha-blockers) and finasteride (5-alpha reductase inhibitor), primarily in treating the enlarged prostate gland. As the gland enlarges, it can lead to urinary problems, such as difficulty passing urine and a frequent urination urge. Finasteride lowers the production of dihydrotestosterone hormone, which leads to a decrease in the size of the prostate and, as a result, relieves the symptoms. This will reduce the risk of acute urinary retention and the need for surgery. Tamsulosin makes it easy to pass urine by relaxing the muscles of the gland. Collectively, both of them improve the symptoms of Benign Hyperplasia Prostate (BPH).
