Syldo 8 D Capsule 10 is primarily used to manage symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in adult men, a condition in which the prostate gland enlarges. This medicine is a combination medication containing two active ingredients. This capsule alleviates BPH symptoms and improves urinary flow by relaxing certain muscles in the body. It addresses both the static and dynamic components of BPH, providing relief from uncomfortable conditions associated with an enlarged prostate.
Uses
- Managing symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia in adult males with an enlarged prostate
- Providing symptomatic relief by reducing the size of the prostate over time
- Improving urinary symptoms through muscle relaxation in the prostate and bladder neck
How Syldo 8 D Capsule 10 Works?
Syldo 8d Capsule 10 contains two active ingredients:
- Silodosin (8 mg): As an alpha-blocker, silodosin relaxes the prostate and bladder neck muscles. It selectively antagonises alpha-1 adrenoreceptors located in these tissues, leading to improved urinary flow and reduced symptoms of BPH.
- Dutasteride (0.5 mg): This component works as a selective inhibitor of both type 1 and type 2 isoforms of 5α-reductase, an enzyme crucial in converting testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is mainly responsible for prostate growth; hence, by lowering DHT levels in the prostate, dutasteride helps shrink the prostate and improves BPH symptoms.
