Avodart (dutasteride) with Flomax (tamsulosin) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)

August 2008

GlaxoSmithKline reps will promote using Avodart (dutasteride) with Flomax (tamsulosin) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

They'll cite new evidence that the combo improves BPH symptoms better than either drug alone. The FDA also just approved the combo for men with symptomatic BPH and an enlarged prostate.

Many urologists already use Avodart or Proscar (finasteride) with an alpha-blocker (Flomax, Cardura, Hytrin).
