Nothing to addWhat this medicine is for
Tamsulosin is a medicine in the “alpha-blocker (prostate adenoma)” category. This medicine relaxes the muscles of the bladder neck and prostate to improve urination in cases of adenoma.
In the case of Tamsulosin, this means: Relieves urinary disorders linked to prostate adenoma. It is most often a maintenance treatment, taken at regular times over long periods; its benefit is judged over time, not by how you feel on the day.

Do you need a supplement? No.
For Tamsulosine, we offer no supplement. No nutritional supplementation is seriously justified as an addition to this treatment, and we would rather write that than invent a need. Our range is limited to five classes of everyday medicines for which a targeted intake makes sense; outside of those, we do not sell for the sake of selling, and that is what gives weight to our five products.
