Product Overview

If symptoms persist beyond this period or worsen, consult your doctor.

Possible Side Effects
Common side effects may include reduced sexual desire, difficulties with erections, breast tenderness, and enlargement of the breasts. You might also experience dizziness or drowsiness, especially when starting the medication. These side effects often lessen over time. If they continue or cause significant concern, reach out to your healthcare professional. Your doctor has prescribed this medication because its benefits outweigh potential risks.

This medication is not intended for use by women or children. Inform your doctor if you have low blood pressure or suffer from liver or kidney issues, as the medication might not be suitable for you.

Your doctor may recommend precautions such as regular blood pressure monitoring or using condoms during sexual activity. Discuss alcohol consumption with your healthcare provider.

Uses

• Management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)

Benefits
An enlarged prostate can cause urinary symptoms including difficulty starting urination, frequent or urgent need to urinate, and slower urine flow. Without treatment, urine flow may eventually become blocked. Maxvoid Plus 4mg/0.5mg Tablet combines two medicines to address these issues: one reduces the size of the prostate by blocking hormone production responsible for its growth, and the other relaxes muscles in the bladder and prostate. Together, they help relieve symptoms and improve urine flow. Full benefits may take up to six months to become evident. Always follow your doctor’s instructions for best results.

Common Side Effects

• Reduced libido

• Ejaculation issues

• Male breast enlargement and tenderness

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing (orthostatic hypotension)

• Nausea

• Erectile dysfunction

How to Use
Take Maxvoid Plus exactly as directed by your physician. Swallow the tablet whole without chewing or crushing. It is recommended to take this medication with food.

How It Works
Maxvoid Plus 4mg/0.5mg Tablet contains silodosin and dutasteride. Silodosin is an alpha-blocker that relaxes muscles around the prostate and bladder neck, making urination easier. Dutasteride reduces prostate size by inhibiting the hormone responsible for prostate growth, thereby improving urinary symptoms over time.
