How Silocap-D Works

Silodosin is an alpha-1 adrenergic blocker. It relaxes the muscles of the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier for urine to pass.

Dutasteride reduces the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to prostate enlargement. Over time, it helps reduce the size of the prostate.

Together, they provide symptom relief while also addressing prostate enlargement.
