Geriflo-D Tablet

Product Overview

Geriflo-D Tablet SR is a prescription medication designed to help men manage symptoms of an enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This combination therapy contains two active ingredients that work synergistically to improve urinary flow and reduce the frequency and urgency of urination, supporting better daily comfort and quality of life.

Usage Instructions

Take Geriflo-D Tablet SR at the same time each day, with or without food, as directed by your doctor. Consistent daily use is crucial for optimal symptom relief. Noticeable improvements may take a few weeks, and full benefits can appear within several months of continuous treatment. Do not stop the medication without consulting your healthcare provider.

Key Benefits

Helps alleviate urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate, such as difficulty starting urination, weak stream, or frequent urges.

Reduces prostate size over time to improve bladder emptying and prevent urinary obstruction.

Supports long-term prostate health and improves overall comfort during daily activities.

Uses

Treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in adult men.

Mechanism of Action

Geriflo-D Tablet SR combines two active agents:

Tamsulosin: An alpha-blocker that relaxes smooth muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, facilitating easier urine flow.

Dutasteride: A 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that gradually shrinks the prostate by reducing hormone-driven growth.

This dual approach addresses both immediate urinary symptoms and long-term prostate enlargement.

Possible Side Effects

Common side effects may occur, especially when starting the medication:

Dizziness or lightheadedness, particularly when standing.

Sexual side effects including decreased libido, impotence, or ejaculation disorders.

Breast tenderness or enlargement in males.

Most side effects are mild and typically diminish as the body adjusts. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist.
