Alphacept-M25 Combipack 1's

Alphacept-M25 Combipack is used for the treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition in men that causes the enlargement of the prostate gland. It is complicated by an overactive bladder and symptoms of urge urinary incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine), urgency, and frequency.

Alphacept-M25 Combipack contains Mirabegron and Silodosin. Mirabegron works by reducing the activity of an overactive bladder and treats related symptoms. Silodosin works by relaxing the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland. Thus, it makes it easier to pass urine and helps relieve urinary symptoms.

Take Alphacept-M25 Combipack as prescribed. Your doctor will advise you on how often you should take it based on your medical condition. Alphacept-M25 Combipack may cause common side effects such as abnormal ejaculation, increased heart rate, dizziness, nausea, constipation, urinary tract infections, and runny or blocked nose. Most of these side effects of Alphacept-M25 Combipack do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

Alphacept-M25 Combipack contains Mirabegron and Silodosin. Mirabegron is a bladder muscle relaxant which works by reducing the activity of an overactive bladder and treats related symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency incontinence (an uncontrollable urge to urinate) and sudden need to empty the bladder. Silodosin works by relaxing the muscles around the bladder exit and prostate gland. Thus, it makes it easier to pass urine and helps relieve urinary symptoms such as incomplete bladder emptying, frequent urination at night and difficulty urinating. Thus, together, they help treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptoms.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH): It is a condition in men in which age-related prostate gland enlargement occurs, which may cause urination difficulty. It occurs when the prostate gland's cells start to multiply. Your prostate gland swells due to these extra cells, which squeeze the urethra and decrease urine flow. The exact cause is unknown, but age-related changes in male sex hormones may be a factor. Any testicular abnormalities or a family history of prostate issues could increase the risk of developing BPH. The symptoms include excessive urination at night, dribbling (to move downwards in a thin flow) after urination, a sense of incomplete bladder emptying, an urge to urinate and leaking, frequent urination and a weak urinary stream.
