Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | Increased urinary flow w/o the side effects of Flomax (decreased erectile strength). Available strengths are more varied with Cardura, thus effectiveness can be achieved with minimal dosage. |
| Side effects: | | None with Cardura. I switched from Flomax because the minimum dosage of 4 mg reduced libido and erectile strength. Not completely, but "half-mast" so to speak. |
| Comments: | | 1 2mg tablet at night. Must be taken at the same time as effects last only 22-24 hours. This medication is also used to lower blood pressure, but at the dosage I am taking, my BP remains in the normal range of 75-80. |
