Reviews for silodosin systemic to treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Rapaflo (silodosin): My urine flow improved within just a few hours after the first dose. However, although I have somewhat of a climax during sex, there is no ejaculation, just totally dry, a weird feeling. Also, after a couple of days I noticed nasal congestion.
This is my first medication for BPH, so I must decide if the treatment is worse than the cure. One thing for sure, this could be the first real male contraceptive to hit the market!

Rapaflo (silodosin): I was taking Flomax. Very soon after starting Rapaflo I realized I could not ejaculate during sex. Also, after a couple of weeks I had two successive instances of a very weakened stream when urinating soon after taking the Rapaflo pill followed by nights of getting up several times to urinate. I went back to Flomax and the symptoms went away. Ejaculation was weak after several days on Flomax, but will, hopefully, improve.

Rapaflo (silodosin): Rapaflo has worked great for me. I used to use Flomax and my doctor switched me. I feel so much better and don't have the dizziness I used to have with Flomax.

Rapaflo (silodosin): I had been using Flomax for the past 3 years and my urologist suggested I try this new medicine Rapaflo. Well I took it for 5 days and it became very difficult to urinate so I switched back to Flomax and all is flowing well again.

Rapaflo (silodosin): I am 37 and have taken this for two weeks. It has improved my urinary symptoms but has caused a side effect that I am not pleased with, retrograde ejaculation.
