Veltam Plus

Product Overview:

Veltam Plus is a dual-action medication combining Dutasteride and Tamsulosin. This innovative formulation provides a comprehensive treatment approach for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), effectively addressing urinary symptoms and promoting prostate health.

Uses:

This medication is specifically indicated for managing BPH symptoms including:
– Difficulty initiating urination
– Weak urine stream
– Increased urinary frequency
– Nocturia (frequent nighttime urination)

How to Use:

Take Veltam Plus exactly as prescribed, typically one capsule daily. The capsule should be swallowed whole with water, either with or without food. Do not crush, chew, or break the capsule as this may affect its controlled-release properties.

Mechanism of Action:

Veltam Plus works through two complementary mechanisms:
1. Dutasteride: A 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that reduces prostate size by blocking testosterone conversion
2. Tamsulosin: An alpha-blocker that relaxes prostate and bladder neck muscles to improve urine flow

Dosage and Administration:

Standard dosage: One capsule (containing 0.5 mg Dutasteride and 0.4 mg Tamsulosin) taken orally once daily. Maintain consistent dosing times and follow all medical instructions regarding duration of treatment.

Therapeutic Benefits:

Patients using Veltam Plus may experience:

• Significant improvement in urinary flow
• Reduction in prostate volume
• Decreased urinary urgency and frequency
• Enhanced comfort during urination
• Improved sleep quality due to reduced nocturia

Potential Side Effects:

Common adverse effects (typically mild and transient) may include:
– Orthostatic hypotension (dizziness upon standing)
– Headache
– Rhinitis (nasal congestion)

– Decreased libido
