By taking two 0.4 mg pills at bedtime, you are already at the maximum dose.
Tamsulosin dosage: 0.4 mg orally once daily one-half hour following the same meal each day.
After 2 to 4 weeks, dose may be increased to 0.8 mg once daily. If dosing is interrupted for several days, therapy should be restarted at 0.4 mg once a day.
