Indications
Tamsulosin Hydrochloride is a treatment for the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Pharmacology
Tamsulosin, a selective alpha1 adrenoceptor blocker, selectively blocks alpha1 A adrenoceptors in the human prostate. When these adrenoceptors are blocked, the smooth muscle in the bladder neck, and prostate relaxes, resulting in increased urine flow and a reduction in BPH symptoms. Under fasting conditions, oral administration of Tamsulosin hydrochloride capsule 0.4mg results in nearly complete absorption (90 percent). The time to maximum concentration (Tmax) is four to five hours when given without food, and six to seven hours when given with food. Tamsulosin hydrochloride binds to human plasma protein extremely well (94% to 99%). Tamsulosin hydrochloride is extensively metabolized in the liver by cytochrome P 450 proteins, with less than 10% of the measurements excreted in pee as unaltered shape. Tamsulosin hydrochloride has a plasma disposal half-life of five to seven hours after intravenous or oral administration of an immediate-release definition. Because 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 in the target population.
Dosage & Administration
Interaction
Tamsulosin, a selective alpha1 adrenoceptor blocker, selectively blocks alpha1 A adrenoceptors in the human prostate. When these adrenoceptors are blocked, the smooth muscle in the bladder neck, and prostate relaxes, resulting in increased urine flow and a reduction in BPH symptoms. Under fasting conditions, oral administration of Tamsulosin hydrochloride capsule 0.4mg results in nearly complete absorption (90 percent). The time to maximum concentration (Tmax) is four to five hours when given without food, and six to seven hours when given with food. There were no interactions at the level of hepatic metabolism observed during in vitro studies with liver microsomal fractions (typical of the cytochrome P450-linked drug-metabolizing enzyme system) involving amitriptyline, salbutamol, glibenclamide, and finasteride. Diclofenac and warfarin, on the other hand, have the potential to increase the rate of Tamsulosin elimination.
