The safety profile of alfuzosin, a selective alpha 1-adrenergic antagonist, was assessed in a total of 13,389 patients (mean age 66.9 +/- 8.5 years) with symptomatic benign prostatic hypertrophy in two open, noncontrolled, multicentre, post-marketing surveillance studies, both conducted in France.
INTRODUCTION/GOAL: Bladder wall thickness and bladder mass are higher in patients with subvesical obstruction caused by benign prostate enlargement (BPE) in compensated stage of the disease. The goal of the study was to determine changes of bladder detrusor in patients suffering from benign
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disorder in elderly men which carries a substantial economic burden. Urinary symptoms associated with moderate to severe disease can significantly interfere with daily activities and reduce quality of life. Obstruction of urine flow in men with BPH can
OBJECTIVE
The alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonists represent the most frequently prescribed first line treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Tamsulosin is a uroselective alpha1A/alpha1D adrenergic receptor antagonist. The objective of this study is to establish the efficacy and safety of a
This randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind study was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-a-day terazosin (10 mg/d) in ambulatory patients (n = 57) with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). After a 4-week placebo lead-in and a 24-week treatment period with terazosin (with both
This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-a-day terazosin (10 mg/day) in ambulatory patients (n = 57) with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). After a 4-week placebo lead-in and a 24-week treatment period with terazosin (both
Thirty-five patients with prostatic hyperplasia were entered into a randomized controlled study using bunazosin hydrochloride(alpha 1-adrenergic blocker). Eighteen patients were allocated to be treated with an initial dose of 1.5 mg/day (group 1) and 17 patients received an initial dose of 3.0
The rationale for using alpha blockade to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is based on the physiology and pharmacology of prostate smooth muscle. Approximately 20% of the area density of the prostate adenoma is smooth muscle. In vitro isometric tension studies have demonstrated that the
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tamsulosin dose increase to 0.4 mg daily in Asian patients with lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia refractory to tamsulosin 0.2 mg treatment.
METHODS
We carried out a 12-week, single-center, randomized,
BACKGROUND
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disorder in males, and its incidence increases with age. Safety results from trials with doxazosin therapy in elderly patients were collated and described.
METHODS
Safety data were collated from seven completed multicenter, double-blind,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Cardura XL (doxazosin mesylate controlled release tablets) on lower urinary tract symptoms, IPSS (international prognostic scoring system) and short-term QOL (quality of life) (3 months) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia
This prospective study evaluated the safety of tadalafil 5 mg taken once a day in terms of hypotensive side effects and whether it improves lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and restores sexual function in patients with erectile dysfunction who are receiving concomitant α-blocker (AB) therapy for
UNASSIGNED
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of switching from 0.2 mg tamsulosin to 0.4 mg tamsulosin oral controlled absorption system (OCAS) over a 12-week period in Taiwanese men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic
OBJECTIVE
To review the information necessary to assess the efficacy and safety of tamsulosin compared with other adrenergic antagonists for treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia.
METHODS
A search was conducted of Cumulated Index Medicus, January 1993-August 1999, which was
OBJECTIVE
To review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety, drug interactions, and dosing recommendations of dutasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
METHODS
A MEDLINE search (1966-February 2006) was conducted to extract human research data in
