Jalyn (dutasteride / tamsulosin) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Have been taking Jalyn for 3 months. Did experience better urine flow and fewer trips to the bathroom at night. Side effects are: constipation, dry ejaculation (no semen), decreased libido, dizziness, and hip pain. Might consider switching medication depending on if side effects worsen."

Jalyn (dutasteride / tamsulosin) for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I have been taking Jalyn for about 4 months, and have experienced mild improvement in my urine stream. I get up once during the night. Have experienced decreased libido and an inability to ejaculate, which happened during the third month of use. Also had some mild dizziness during the first month."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Do not take this drug! I have been on Flomax since 2016. I stopped yesterday after finding out online what I have been experiencing: severe back pain (so much so I have had nerve ablations, nerve blocks in my hip and back-all in one year with unexplained back pain, seeing a doctor every month! But I feel so much better in just one day! And-my vision declined in just two years, not to mention extreme sensitivity to the sun, even interior lights. This medicine is awful, only made me so dizzy I passed out a few times."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Dizziness, impacted vision, neck and back muscle aches, difficulty in returning to sleep. I took Flomax for three months and reduced my intake to every other day due to the above problems and finally gave it up as bad medication for me."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Improvement in urine flow was the only benefit! The worst side effect was in standing from a crouched position and experiencing severe dizziness to the point where I thought I was going unconscious. After taking it for a year, I ran out of the drug before I had a chance to renew the prescription, and after a few days, I decided not to renew. Why, you may ask? I felt renewed vigor and motivation, the lack of which I put down to being elderly and not to the drug. Another side effect is floppy iris syndrome, which if you read the ANZCO (Australian New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists) essay on the matter, you will understand why this is such a serious side effect!"
