Indications
Uromax is a medication used to treat the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Pharmacology
Tamsulosin, a selective alpha1 adrenoceptor blocker, shows alpha1 A adrenoceptor selectivity in the human prostate. Blocking these adrenoceptors causes smooth muscle in the bladder neck and prostate to relax, resulting in increased urine flow and a decrease in BPH symptoms. Following oral administration of Tamsulosin hydrochloride capsule 0.4mg under fasting conditions, absorption is nearly full (90 percent). When given without food, the time to maximum concentration (Tmax) is four to five hours, while when given with food, it is six to seven hours. Tamsulosin hydrochloride is amazingly bound to human plasma protein (94% to 99%). Tamsulosin hydrochloride is broadly metabolized by cytochrome P 450 proteins within the liver and less than 10% of the measurements are excreted in pee as an unaltered shape. Taking after the intravenous or verbal organization of an immediate-release definition the disposal half-life of Tamsulosin hydrochloride in plasma ranges from five to seven hours. Since of the retention rate-controlled pharmacokinetics with Prostam capsules, the clear half-life of Tamsulosin hydrochloride is around 9 to 13 hours in solid volunteers and 14 to 15 hours within the target population.
Dosage & Administration
Uromax 0.4 mg (one capsule) daily, to be taken after a meal at night. The dose may be increased after 2 to 4 weeks, if necessary, to Tamsulosin Hydrochloride 0.8 mg (two capsules) once daily.

The capsule should be swallowed whole with a glass of water (about 150 ml) in the standing or sitting position. The capsule should not be crunched or chewed, as this will interfere with the modified release of the active ingredient.

When given without food, the time to maximum concentration (Tmax) is four to five hours, while when given with food, it is six to seven hours. During in vitro investigations with liver microsomal fractions (typical of the cytochrome P450-linked drug-metabolizing enzyme system) involving amitriptyline, salbutamol, glibenclamide, and finasteride, no interactions at the level of hepatic metabolism were observed. Diclofenac and warfarin, on the other hand, may enhance the rate of Tamsulosin elimination.
