Customer Question:
What medications can I use if I have an enlarged prostate? Anonymous Customer Question
Pharmacist's Answer:
An enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a common condition in older men. This condition can cause urination problems, such as frequent urination, a weak urine stream, a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying, and an increased need to go to the bathroom.
Treatment for enlarged prostate includes different types of medications that help relieve symptoms:
- Alpha-blockers help relax the prostate and bladder muscles, improving urine flow and reducing discomfort during urination.
- Testosterone-5-alpha reductase inhibitors block the hormone that stimulates prostate growth, causing the prostate to shrink over time, making urination easier.
- Phytotherapy complements traditional treatments by using plant extracts, such as saw palmetto. It can help with milder symptoms, but results are often less predictable.
A doctor's visit is essential for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. In more severe cases, surgical procedures are also available.
