About Urobeth D 10mg/0.5mg Tablet

Medicinal Benefits of Urobeth D 10mg/0.5mg Tablet

ALFUZOSIN+DUTASTERIDE contains Alfuzosin (alpha-blockers) and dutasteride (5-alpha reductase inhibitor), primarily in treating the enlarged prostate gland.

Dutasteride lowers the production of dihydrotestosterone hormone, which leads to a decrease in the size of the prostate and, as a result, relieves the symptoms. This will reduce the risk of acute urinary retention and the need for surgery. Alfuzosin makes it easy to pass urine by relaxing the muscles of the gland.
