About Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's

Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's belongs to the category of medicine called 'alpha-blocker' primarily used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia - BPH (enlarged prostate), and urinary bladder outlet obstruction. It relaxes the prostate gland’s muscles and urinary bladder neck at the obstruction site, resulting in improved urine flow with reduced BPH symptoms. Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's is for use by men only and not indicated for use by women. Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's does not cure prostate cancer. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate gland) is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland caused due to overproduction of a hormone called ‘dihydrotestosterone’ in men. As the gland enlarges, it can lead to urinary problems, such as difficulty passing urine and frequent urination. Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's helps in getting relief from these symptoms.

Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's contains Tamsulosin hydrochloride (alpha-blocker) which primarily treats the enlarged prostate gland leading to urinary problems (like difficulty in passing urine and a frequent urination urge). It is a prodrug, and it gets broken down into its active form (i.e. Tamsulosin) in the gut (intestine). Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's makes it easy to pass urine by relaxing the muscles of the prostate gland. Effectively, it improves the symptoms of Benign Hyperplasia Prostate (BPH). 

Take Tampure-0.4 Tablet 10's as prescribed.
