BPH is a condition that causes prostate enlargement in men, particularly those over 50. Flomax works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate.

Flomax (tamsulosin) is one of several medications used to treat BPH. Each option works differently and may suit different patient needs. Understanding how Flomax compares can help you and your provider make informed choices.
• Tamsulosin (Flomax): Alpha blocker that relaxes smooth muscle for symptom relief; fast-acting; doesn’t reduce prostate size
• Alfuzosin (Uroxatral): Also an alpha blocker, similar benefits. Must be used in caution in patients with kidney problems.
• Doxazosin/terazosin: Non-selective alpha-blockers; treat both BPH but have a higher risk of dizziness and fainting
• Finasteride/dutasteride: 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors that shrink the prostate over time; take 6 months for full effect; may cause sexual side effects
• Combination therapy: Combining Flomax with a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor provides both short- and long-term benefits but may increase side effects.
In summary, Flomax offers fast symptom relief and is often a first-line option for BPH, but it doesn’t address prostate growth. Patients with larger prostates or advanced BPH may benefit more from combination therapy. Your provider can tailor your treatment based on your symptoms, goals, and medical history.
