How It Works
Duodart combines two active ingredients: dutasteride and tamsulosin. Dutasteride inhibits the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, reducing dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels and shrinking the prostate gland. Tamsulosin, an alpha-1 blocker, relaxes muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, improving urinary flow and reducing symptoms. This combination addresses both the underlying cause of prostate enlargement and provides immediate symptom relief.
