Description
Product Introduction
Tamixo 0.4OD Tablet is an alpha-adrenergic antagonist used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It helps relieve urinary symptoms like difficulty in passing urine. However, it does not reduce the size of the prostate.
It should be taken in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. You may take it with or without food, but at the same time each day. Do not crush or chew the tablet. Do not stop the medication without consulting your doctor.
Common side effects include dizziness, back pain, chest pain, and ejaculation disorders. Consult your doctor if these persist or bother you.
Simple lifestyle changes can help: urinate when needed, avoid caffeine and alcohol in the evening, and don’t strain to empty the bladder.
