Overview Alfoo 10mg Tablet PR

Alfaprost 10mg tablets are alpha-1 blockers indicated for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptom relief. This medication eases urinary difficulties but doesn't shrink the prostate. Always adhere to your physician's prescribed dosage and schedule. Take with food at the same time each day, swallowing the tablet whole. Discontinuing Alfaprost without medical supervision may exacerbate symptoms; complete the prescribed course for optimal results. Common side effects include upper respiratory infections, lightheadedness, headaches, nausea, stomach upset, and erectile dysfunction. Blurred vision or dizziness may occur; avoid driving if affected. Report persistent or bothersome side effects immediately. Lifestyle modifications, such as promptly urinating when needed (without straining), limiting evening caffeine and alcohol intake, can aid symptom management. Inform your doctor of all current medications before starting Alfaprost. Disclose Alfaprost use to your ophthalmologist prior to any cataract or glaucoma surgery. Patients with liver or kidney impairment should exercise caution and undergo regular monitoring.
