Tamlocept is a brand name for tamsulosin. It belongs to a class of drugs known as alpha blockers. It is available in the form of a tablet and capsule. It is used in men for the treatment of enlarged prostate (benign prostate hyperplasia or BPH) which may comprise painful urination, difficulty in urinating (incomplete bladder emptying, hesitation, dribbling, weak stream), urgency and frequency. It is also used for the treatment of chronic prostatitis (off-label).
Yes, Tamlocept has the potential to lower the blood pressure and cause hypotension. Low blood pressure can be avoided or managed by drinking lots of fluids, taking food rich in B12 and folate, taking adequate salt, and by taking caffeine.
Rarely, Tamlocept causes a persistent painful penile erection which is not related to an intercourse. This condition is known as priapism. If not treated properly, this condition can cause permanent impotence. Therefore, if you suffer from any such condition while taking Tamlocept, please inform your doctor immediately.
Tamlocept blocks receptors in the prostate, prostatic capsule, prostate urethra, and bladder neck. When these receptors are blocked, smooth muscle relaxation occurs in the bladder neck and prostate, decreasing the urinary outflow resistance in men.
