Tamsulosin is a quiet safe drug. However, a few side effects are dizziness, flu-like symptoms, cough, fever, difficulty in urination etc. Keep a watch on it.

Dear ,
if you are not constipated and you have genuine prostatic enlargement it will definitely help a lot. Also make sure that you do not have urinary infection. If so add antibiotic like ofloxacin or levofloxacin.

Inability to release semen is due to retrograde ejaculation caused by tamsulosin. It is usually temporary and usually stops once you stop taking this medication.

Recently I had visited a urologist for sexual disorder issues, on doing a urine flow test it was noticed that the flow is poor, so he advised a few medicines one of which is tamlocept 0.4 mg, suddenly after taking this medicine for 3-4 days I am not able to ejaculate for the first time in life. I have been advised the tablet for 15 days, does this ejaculation problem go away once I complete the course?
