    Prostate Enlargement Treatment

    Prostate Infection

    Alpha blockers: These drugs don’t reduce the size of the prostate, but they are very effective at relieving symptoms. They work by relaxing the muscles around the prostate and bladder neck, so urine can flow more easily. These drugs work quickly, so symptoms improve within a day or two. They are most effective for men with normal to moderately enlarged prostate glands.

    The drugs: Flomax (tamsulosin), Uroxatral (alfuzosin), Hytrin (terazosin), and Cardura (doxazosin).

    Alpha blockers were originally created to treat high blood pressure; dizziness is the most common side effect; other side effects are generally mild and controllable. Possible side effects: headache, stomach irritation, and stuffy nose. These drugs are not for men with significant urine retention and frequent urinary tract infections.

    5-Alpha reductase inhibitors: These drugs can partially shrink the prostate by reducing levels of a male hormone — dihydrotestosterone (DHT) — which is involved in prostate growth. These drugs take longer to work than alpha blockers, but there is urine flow improvement after three months. These drugs can reduce risk of acute retention (inability to urinate) — and also reduce the need for prostate surgery. You may need to take them for six to 12 months to see if they work.

    The drugs: Proscar (finasteride) and Avodart (dutasteride).

    Possible side effects: erection problems, decreased sexual desire, and reduced amount of semen. These side effects are generally mild and may go away when you stop taking the drugs — or after the first year of taking the drugs.
