Urimax 0.4 Capsule MR

Product Introduction

Urimax 0.4 Capsule MR is a medication primarily prescribed to manage symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a common condition in aging men. Marketed as Urimax in its generic form, this medication contains Tamsulosin hydrochloride as its active ingredient. Tamsulosin belongs to a class of drugs known as alpha-blockers, which work by relaxing the muscles in the prostate gland and the bladder neck, thereby improving urinary flow and reducing symptoms such as difficulty urinating, incomplete emptying of the bladder, and frequent or urgent need to urinate.

Urimax 0.4 Capsule MR is formulated for modified release, ensuring a controlled and sustained release of the medication over time, thereby providing consistent therapeutic effects.
