Product Introduction
Veltam 0.2 Tablet MR is a medicine that belongs to a class of drugs known as alpha-adrenergic blockers. It is commonly prescribed for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition where the prostate gland becomes enlarged. This medicine helps improve urine flow and reduces symptoms such as difficulty passing urine, frequent urination, or an urgent need to urinate. However, it does not shrink the size of the prostate.

The tablet should be taken exactly as directed by your doctor, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow it whole without breaking or crushing it. Do not stop the medication suddenly without medical advice, as this may worsen your symptoms. Completing the full course as prescribed ensures maximum effectiveness.

Some individuals may experience side effects like dizziness, back pain, chest discomfort, nausea, headache, or ejaculation-related issues, including retrograde ejaculation. Most side effects are temporary, but if they continue or become bothersome, seek medical attention.

Making small lifestyle changes can support treatment and reduce symptoms. Avoid delaying urination when you feel the urge and never strain to empty your bladder. Limiting caffeinated and alcoholic drinks, especially in the evening, can also help manage nighttime symptoms.

Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor about any other health conditions or medications you are taking. If you are scheduled for eye surgery due to cataracts or glaucoma, let your eye surgeon know about your use of this medication. Patients with liver conditions should use this medicine cautiously and follow up regularly with their healthcare provider.

Uses of Veltam 0.2 Tablet MR
This medication is primarily used in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia to relieve urinary difficulties and improve quality of life.

Benefits
An enlarged prostate can lead to urinary problems such as weak urine stream, difficulty starting urination, and frequent urges to urinate, especially at night. If left untreated, it can cause complete blockage of urine flow. Veltam 0.2 Tablet MR works by relaxing the muscles around the bladder and prostate, making it easier to pass urine and helping to fully empty the bladder. While some improvement may be seen quickly, it may take several months to notice the full effect.

Possible Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and tend to improve as your body adapts to the medicine.

Dizziness or lightheadedness
Chest pain or discomfort
Runny or congested nose
Headache
Abdominal discomfort
Nausea
Back pain
Ejaculation issues, including retrograde ejaculation
Risk of urinary tract infection

Directions for Use
Take the tablet exactly as advised by your doctor. Swallow it whole without crushing or chewing. It can be taken with or without food but should be taken at the same time each day for consistent results.

How It Works
Veltam 0.2 Tablet MR acts by blocking certain receptors in the muscles around the prostate and bladder neck, causing these muscles to relax. This helps reduce resistance to urine flow, improves bladder emptying, and decreases the need for frequent or urgent urination.
