    I passed kidney stones twice. In each case, Tamsulosin made the process easier and much less painful. I am not a doctor, but I'm happy that Tamsulosin was prescribed to me (for short term use).

    Although it is extremely seldom that I would consume alcohol, a friend of mine in the recent past, fainted outside of a friends house and fell and hit his head. Fortunately there were no injuries but they kept him in the hospital for one day. And what did he consume before he fell 3 or 4 Jim Beam beverages, mostly Jim Beam very little water. I have advised him.

    • @ThinkYourHealth
      @ThinkYourHealth  2 года назад

      Yes, there is a moderate association.Like with most medications one has to weigh in the benefits vs risks in the context of individual co-morbidities.Here is a paper looking at drugs causing heart failure: www.ahajournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1161/cir.0000000000000426

      @@ThinkYourHealth that’s quite a long list . Wouldn’t your average bph patient tend to have at least some of these comorbities? And if so many people are on these drugs, why isn’t there more out there about this “moderate association “. That seems very concerning .

    Why does my husband keep fainting when he’s on Flomax? And he got high anxiety from it, he could not sleep, why? He doesn’t drink smoke or take any other drugs.

    • @ThinkYourHealth
      @ThinkYourHealth  10 месяцев назад

      Flomax as a side effect can cause orthostatic hypotension, i.e it can drop your blood pressure.Speak with your doctor and try switching it to nightime before going to be.

    • @janetw9430

      @ThinkYourHealth if he takes in the morning, he faints, he takes it for night thats when he wakes up in the night with high anxiety and his blood preasure is in the danger zone on his machine, I swear he was going to have a heart attack.

      It depend on the status of the prostate. My ejaculations have been sucking for a while even before taking this. I'm still in the first month of this comment and it is probably most of the time treatment with this drug is a hit vs flop. There may be other factor that lead a user to think side effects other than the disclaimer sheet issued by Your pharmacy. I've experienced consequences with holistic approach in the past and I have seen them too. I stopped using non-fluoride toothpaste as My teeth were on a more rapid decline using it. I still have most of them it's just that I'm paying for that emotionally now.

      I've been on once daily .4 mg Tamsulosin for several months for treatment of BPH. while it has been highly effective in helping with urine flow I initially had very real problems with low blood pressure. so my doctor switched me to every other day dosing and that helped. The two worst side effects I have experienced are a loss of energy and very sensitive teeth that make chewing meat very difficult. Within just a few days of starting Tamsulosin if I attempted even a short 1 mile walk I had to stop every 1/10 of a mile and rest. My muscles just didn't seem to want to work! It wasn't that I felt sleepy tired, it was just that my muscles were not able to work properly. Initially I also experienced a fairly severe allergic reaction to this drug with sneezing, itchy red palms, and vomiting and diarrhea but that only happened once. Eventually I decided to stop taking Tamsulosin and within a few days I could hike without any problem and my sensitive sore teeth went away. Trouble is that within 7 days my urinary problems returned. Any suggestions?
