Product Description
URIMAX D (Bottle) is a fixed-dose combination medication that contains Tamsulosin and Dutasteride. Tamsulosin belongs to a class of medications called alpha-blockers, which relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate. Dutasteride is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, which reduce the size of the prostate gland by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The combination of Tamsulosin and Dutasteride provides relief from symptoms of enlarged prostate, such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and weak urinary flow. URIMAX D (Bottle) helps in improving urinary flow and reducing the need for prostate surgery.
