Velfu Tablet PR

Product introduction
Velfu Tablet PR is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs called alpha-adrenergic blockers. It is commonly prescribed for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition in which the prostate gland becomes enlarged, leading to urinary issues. This medicine helps improve urine flow and relieve symptoms such as frequent urination or difficulty passing urine. However, it does not actually reduce the size of the prostate gland.

This medicine should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually recommended to take it with food at the same time every day for the best results. Swallow the tablet whole without breaking, chewing, or crushing it. Do not stop using this medicine suddenly without consulting your healthcare provider, as it could worsen your symptoms. Completing the full course of treatment ensures the medicine works effectively.

Some commonly reported side effects may include dizziness, headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort, impotence, and upper respiratory tract infections. Blurred vision and drowsiness can also occur, so it’s best to avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how this medicine affects you. If any side effects persist or cause concern, seek medical attention promptly.

Simple lifestyle changes can improve your condition alongside treatment. Try to empty your bladder as soon as you feel the urge to urinate and avoid straining while doing so. Limiting caffeinated and alcoholic beverages, especially in the evening, can help reduce nighttime trips to the bathroom.

Before starting Velfu Tablet PR, inform your doctor about any other medicines you are taking and any existing health issues, particularly related to your liver, kidneys, or heart. If you are planning to undergo cataract or glaucoma surgery, it is important to let your eye doctor know about this medication. Regular check-ups may be required during treatment to monitor your progress.

Uses of Velfu Tablet PR
Velfu Tablet PR is used to relieve symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia, such as difficulty urinating, frequent urge to urinate, and weak urine flow.

Benefits of Velfu Tablet PR
When the prostate gland becomes enlarged, it can press against the urinary tract, making it difficult to pass urine. Velfu Tablet PR helps relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, allowing urine to flow more freely. This not only improves symptoms but also lowers the risk of complications such as complete urinary blockage. While some relief may be felt quickly, it can take several months to experience the full benefits of this medication. Consistent use as directed is essential for best results.

Possible side effects
Most side effects are mild and temporary, resolving as your body adjusts to the treatment. However, if they continue or cause discomfort, consult your doctor.
Commonly reported side effects include:

• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Headache
• Nausea
• Abdominal pain
• Impotence
• Upper respiratory tract infections

How to take Velfu Tablet PR
Take this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor. It should be swallowed whole with water, preferably along with food, to reduce the risk of side effects like dizziness.

How it works
Velfu Tablet PR acts by relaxing the muscles around the prostate gland and the bladder outlet. This makes it easier to urinate by reducing resistance and improving urine flow.
