Silotime-M 50 Tablet

Product Introduction
Silotime-M 50 Tablet is a combination medicine prescribed for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It helps relieve symptoms such as difficulty in passing urine, frequent urination, and urgency to urinate. However, this medication does not reduce the size of the prostate gland.

It should be taken exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. You may take it with or without food, but try to take it at the same time every day for best results. Swallow the tablet whole without breaking, chewing, or crushing it. Do not stop using this medication without consulting your doctor, as it may worsen your symptoms. For optimal results, complete the full course of treatment as advised.

Some commonly reported side effects include dizziness, diarrhea, headache, nasal congestion, retrograde ejaculation, inflammation of the nasal passages, and a sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing (orthostatic hypotension). If any of these effects continue or cause discomfort, seek medical guidance.

To improve your condition, certain lifestyle changes may also help. Avoid delaying urination when you feel the urge, and do not strain to empty your bladder. It is best to reduce or avoid caffeine and alcohol, especially during the evening, to prevent nighttime urination.

Before starting this treatment, inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking or any existing medical conditions. If you are scheduled for cataract or glaucoma surgery, make sure to inform your eye doctor about this medicine in advance. People with kidney or liver issues should take extra care and undergo regular follow-ups as recommended by their physician.

Benefits of Silotime-M 50 Tablet in BPH
An enlarged prostate can cause urinary issues such as a weak urine stream, difficulty starting urination, or the need to urinate frequently and urgently. In severe cases, it may even block urine flow completely. Silotime-M 50 Tablet works by relaxing the muscles of the bladder and prostate, making it easier to pass urine and reducing associated discomfort. It also helps in controlling involuntary bladder contractions that lead to urgency and frequent urination, improving overall quality of life when taken as prescribed.

Possible Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and temporary, resolving as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if they persist or cause concern, contact your doctor.
Common side effects may include:

• Retrograde ejaculation
• Dizziness
• Diarrhea
• Drop in blood pressure upon standing
• Headache
• Nasal congestion or stuffy nose
• Inflammation of nasal passages and throat (nasopharyngitis)

How to Take
Take this medicine exactly as instructed by your doctor. Swallow it whole with water, without crushing or chewing. It can be taken with or without food but should ideally be taken at the same time each day.
