About Solitral Capsule 10's

Solitral Capsule 10's belongs to a class of drug known as genitourinary tract agent primarily used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (overgrowth of the prostate gland, a gland situated between the bladder and penis). Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common illness as men get older. An inflamed prostate gland can cause unpleasant urinary symptoms, like preventing the urine flow out of the bladder. It can also cause urinary tract, bladder, or kidney problems.

Alfuzosin works by blocking the action of alpha-1 receptors and causes smooth muscle relaxation in the bladder and prostate (a walnut-sized gland located between the bladder and the penis). Solifenacin works by inhibiting contraction of the smooth muscle wall surrounding the bladder, resulting in decrease bladder activity. This helps to control the release of urine and helps reduce your symptoms. Collectively, both of them improve the symptoms of Benign Hyperplasia Prostate (BPH).

Disease/Condition Glossary

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): is an enlargement of the prostate gland. The prostate is a small, muscular gland in the male reproductive system. It is a common condition as men get older (50-60 years). It occurs when the cells of the prostate gland begin to multiply. In an enlarged prostate gland, the bladder wall becomes thicker, and the bladder may weaken and lose the ability to empty fully, leaving some urine in the bladder. Symptoms of BPH include frequent or urgent need to urinate, nocturia (increased frequency of urination at night, difficulty starting urination, inability to empty the bladder, painful urination, blood in the urine.
