Q. Why should I stop taking Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet before my cataract surgery?
Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet can cause floppy eye syndrome, in which the muscles of the iris become floppy, and the pupil constricts unexpectedly during cataract surgery.

Q. Can Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet cause frequent urination?
No, Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet does not cause frequent urination. In fact, this medicine increases the urine flow and decreases the urge to urinate frequently, which is a symptom of benign enlargement of the prostate gland. This condition also leads to a weak stream while urinating, and hence, the patient is not able to empty the bladder. Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet is used to treat all such symptoms related to urine flow in patients with benign enlargement of the prostate gland.
Q. What are the long-term effects of taking Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet?
Usually, Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet does not cause any side effects in patients with benign enlargement of the prostate gland. However, long-term use of Tamsukem 0.4 Tablet may increase the chances of having infection, rhinitis, pain, and pharyngitis. Its long-term use may also cause abnormal ejaculation, blackouts, faintness, lightheadedness, dizziness, and decreased blood pressure.
Q. Apart from taking medicines, what should I do to manage my prostate symptoms?
Simple lifestyle changes can help you manage your symptoms better. Try to urinate when you first get the urge. However, take care not to strain or push to empty your bladder. Avoid drinking fluids (especially alcohol and caffeine) a few hours before bedtime or going out. Also, you should not take any other medicine without consulting your doctor because some medicines can increase your urge to urinate.
