For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Really not sure why my urologist gave me samples of this drug since my prostate was normal for my age and my PSA was normal. I was not having issues peeing, just some discomfort. Anyway, I tried the pills for four days. Nothing changed because I was still up 2-3 times per night like I have for years. But... the side effects were immediate. Stuffy head, headaches, and no ejaculate. Not a drop. Freaked me out. Erection was not as strong, and the 'climax' took longer to reach and was literally a split second. If you still enjoy sex, steer clear of this drug. I'm stopping immediately and will not return to that doctor. As far as I'm concerned, I paid $200 for nothing."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I have been getting up 3-4 times every night and finally decided to try medication again. (Previously tried Flomax, which did nothing for me.) Rapaflo, after 4 days, gave me only a headache, diarrhea, and at best a 20% flow increase. I still got up several times during the night, maybe one less time than previous. The side effects and minuscule benefit made it a no-brainer to stop taking this useless medication. A waste of $78."

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I've had a weak stream for some time, but after a recent prostate biopsy, I had extra trouble voiding. Actually, I was just dribbling and couldn't even get up a good stream. In the mornings, I wasn't sure I would be able to urinate at all. After one day, I noticed I was getting a little bit better flow, but it immediately caused dry ejaculation. I took a second day and developed a headache, which carried into the third day. This morning, I was so tired and lethargic I lay in bed till noon. I decided at this point that I would get off it and see if my energy comes back. I believe I will have to opt for surgery and get this fixed."
