Overview Alfuin 10mg Tablet

Ten-milligram Alftuin tablets, an alpha-adrenergic blocking agent, treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), easing urinary difficulties. While effective for symptom relief, it doesn't shrink the prostate. Always follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and schedule. Take with food at the same time each day, swallowing whole; avoid crushing or chewing. Discontinuing treatment prematurely may worsen symptoms, so complete the prescribed course for best results. Common side effects include upper respiratory infections, lightheadedness, headaches, nausea, stomach discomfort, and erectile dysfunction. Blurred vision or dizziness may occur; avoid driving if affected. Report persistent or bothersome side effects promptly.

Disclose all other medications to your physician before starting Alftuin. Inform your ophthalmologist about its use prior to cataract or glaucoma surgery. Those with liver or kidney impairment should exercise caution and maintain regular checkups as advised by their doctor.
