Treatment of signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) such as difficulty in urination, weak stream, incomplete bladder emptying, urinary frequency/urgency and nocturia.
Silodosin is a selective alpha-1A adrenergic receptor blocker that relaxes smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder neck. This reduces urethral resistance and improves urine flow and BPH symptoms.
