Flomax side effects

I found Flomax helped me urinate during and after photon radiation. Once I finished radiation I was taking Flomax twice a day and it helped me clear my bladder. After a month I went down to one pill a day, and a month later stopped taking the drug completely. I don't have issues emptying my bladder now. No issues with urgency. I ordered 10 mg of Cialis on line to help fight future ED. I am not experiencing ED now, but it makes sense to be proactive. Unfortunately the heartburn I got from the Cialis was prohibitive and I stopped. My Dr. was reluctant to prescribe Cialis to me probably because of taking Flomax, blood pressure meds, and Cialis together could be too much for dropping blood pressure., so I ordered it myself online to try it. I can get light headed when I have a drink or two with the meds, but it goes away fast. My experience with FLomax was positive, with Cialis negative.

My experience with Flowmax is almost exactly the same. During RT (proton) I was having trouble peeing, especially at night. Started one Flowmax a day and didn't do much. Increased to two day and that was petty good. Stayed on that until about a month after RT ended went back to one a day. Urination is good both day and night. I finish ADT tomorrow and will probably try to of off the Flowmax in a couple weeks. I have zero side effects with Flowmax. My blood pressure went down 5 - 10 points systolic, but it wasn't that high to begin with and it hasn't caused any dizziness or other issues.

My daily Cialis is 5mg, intended to make sexual function more recoverable when hormone therapy ends. I haven’t recognized side effects at this dosage.
