I took this drug for 2 days as a way to save money on Rapaflo. It made me light headed. I am going back to Rapaflo to be safe. Hytrin should be banned its not worth taking.

Comment:
Effective in controlling my BPH symptoms but at overly high tradeoff for me. Too much undesirable side effects for me - headaches, constipation, weight gain, dry (retrograde) ejaculation, less energy and interest in sex, light-headedness.
