Tampil 0.4 Capsule MR

Tampil 0.4 Capsule MR is prescribed to help men with symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate, medically termed as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Over time, the prostate might continue to enlarge, making symptoms worse. Surgery might be necessary in the future despite using tamsulosin to manage current symptoms.

It meant to be taken orally, usually once daily. Take it 30 minutes after the same meal every day. Follow the instructions on your prescription label closely, and if you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist for clarification.

Patients prescribed it should adhere to their healthcare provider's recommendations regarding dosage and duration of treatment.

It is crucial to report any persistent symptoms or adverse effects promptly.
