For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Started taking for BPH and helped with urine flow. I am a doctor, and this is a true review. The medication makes me weak and tired, along with insomnia. Medication causes orthostatic hypotension when standing from a seated position. The worst side effects include forgetfulness, tooth pain, low back pain, hip pain, knee pain, all of the above severe in nature. The medication's side effects outweigh its benefits. Do yourself a favor and don’t take this stuff."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I want people to know that this medication is very dangerous. Please do not take this medication if you want to continue to walk. This medication caused my dad's death. Please do not take it! This medicine caused my dad to become weak, and eventually, he couldn't walk less than in 4 months. He started falling a lot, and I saw his skin color changing, and I took him off. This medication eventually shuts your body down. Please do not take it."

Dutasteride / tamsulosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I was prescribed Jalyn for 8 months, and my doctor terminated its use at the start of the new year. I noticed very little improvement in the need to urinate approximately every two hours at night. I experienced feelings of weakness, leg cramps, and breast pain/enlargement. I also have noticed some pain in my hips and joints that may or may not be related to the medication. I feel positive about the decision to discontinue its use."
