    Reviewed Flomaxon 12/11/2019Please, please, PLEASE, before prescribing the Flomax, please sit down with the patient and discuss the why this medication, what to expect from it, AND COMPLETE DISCLOSURE ON THE SIDE EFFECTS. Come on. really? I had no clue, my doctor simply said this will help pee, erectile dysfunction and keep my prostate, heck, none of that came true and I took this Flomax for more than a year. Then the doctor informs me of possible side effects. I would like my sexual abilities back.

    Reviewed tamsulosinon 12/2/2019Pros: Improved urine flow and eliminated dribbling. Stronger erections. Random erections. Cons: Loose stools on most days. Very slight dizziness and headaches on many nights. Insomnia coupled with strange sexual half awake, half asleep dreams. Waking wanting to masturbate. Interrupted sleep with vivid dreams. Retrograde ejaculation 2/3's of the time. Poor libido despite the heightened ability to gain erections. Possible interactions with Zoloft making for a perfect storm.

    Reviewed Flomaxon 10/11/2019To reduce the incidence of retrograde ejaculation, stop using it 1-2 days before sexual activity (THAT is a hassle!!). However, the daily relief it provides is well worth it, in my opinion.

    Reviewed tamsulosinon 10/9/2019I was cautioned by urologist about possible sensitivity due to medication's relation to sulfa. Rapaflo/silodosin is acceptable alternative.

    Reviewed tamsulosinon 5/30/2019Tamsulosin works better when combined with tadalafil 2.5 or 5 mg daily. Pee sooner and stronger flow.
