Composition

Dutasteride (0.5 Mg) + Tamsulosin (0.4 Mg)

Temsunol-D Tablet is primarily utilised to manage symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a common condition in adult men marked by an enlarged prostate. This combination medicine belongs to the class of medicines known as 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors and alpha-blockers.

Apart from its main use, this medicine helps lower the risk of acute urinary retention, and a sudden inability to urinate, thereby reducing the necessity for surgical intervention related to the prostate. However, it's not used for preventing prostate cancer.

Before starting on this medication, it's crucial you consult your doctor who will advise on the appropriate dosage and frequency. Let your doctor know of any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications you're taking. If you experience any side effects, notify your doctor right away. Even if you start feeling better, continue taking the tablet for the entire duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Temsunol-D Tablet is taken orally.

Impotence: This refers to the inability to achieve or maintain an erection for sexual intercourse.
Decreased libido: You may experience a reduced interest in sexual activity.
Difficulty with ejaculation
Decreased ejaculate volume
Breast enlargement or tenderness
Dizziness

Managing the Side Effects:

Impotence: Try taking Temsunol-D Tablet at night. This might help manage this side effect by aligning it with your body's natural sleep cycle.
Dizziness: Consider taking this medicine with food. This could help reduce the feeling of light-headedness or losing balance.

Temsunol-D Tablet consists of the following two components:

Dutasteride (0.5 mg): This ingredient stops an enzyme in your body called 5-alpha-reductase from converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is primarily responsible for the growth of the prostate gland. By reducing DHT production, dutasteride helps shrink the enlarged prostate and lessen BPH symptoms.
Tamsulosin (0.4 mg): Known as an alpha-blocker, tamsulosin works by relaxing the smooth muscles in your prostate gland and bladder neck. This action allows urine to flow more easily through your urethra, improving BPH symptoms such as difficulty in starting urination or a weak urine stream.

Pregnancy

Temsunol-D Tablet is not intended for pregnant women.

Breastfeeding

Temsunol-D Tablet is not intended breastfeeding women.

Alcohol

Caution is advised while taking this medication if you consume alcohol regularly or in large quantities. It's best to consult your doctor for more information.
