For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I am 73 and have an enlarged prostate (x2), taking Finasteride, and have tried Flomax and Alfuzosin. The main side effect that is driving me crazy is hyperacusis. My doctor switched me to silodosin, and as usual, it helped in all expected ways, but still, the hyperacusis comes back. Loud noises make me extremely nervous, and it is difficult to be around people. I may have to have the TURP surgery as I cannot tolerate the side effects, especially the hyperacusis. No one seems to have this particular problem, but people as I do experience the throat and nasal symptoms. I can tolerate the dry ejaculations but not the others. I am considering going to a 4 mg dose. It does provide adequate flow."

Silodosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Was using Uroxatral. Rapaflo seems to work about as well, but I also have experienced very little or no ejaculation - very strange sensation."

Silodosin for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "The retrograde ejaculation (no semen) and decreased libido are not worth the benefits for sexually active men. If these side effects are of no concern, then try it, but I hated it."
