Urinice Tablet

Urinice Tablet is a tablet containing tamsulosin hydrochloride as the active ingredient, supplied by Votary Laboratories (India) Ltd. Tamsulosin belongs to a group of medicines called alpha-1 blockers. It is used to help relieve urinary symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also called an enlarged prostate, such as weak stream, hesitancy, and frequent urination.

How it works: Tamsulosin relaxes smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder neck, which helps urine flow more easily. In tablet form, Urinice Tablet delivers the medicine by mouth so it can gradually work on these muscles over time.

Urinice Tablet is a prescription strength of tamsulosin in tablet form, so it is meant for patients a doctor has already assessed for BPH symptoms. Because tamsulosin products can differ by strength and formulation, the exact tablet strength matters for how it is prescribed and tolerated; your clinician chooses the dose based on symptom control and side effects.

• Benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate)
• Urinary hesitancy or difficulty starting urination
• Weak urine stream
• Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying
• Frequent or urgent urination related to BPH

• Swallow Urinice Tablet whole with water; do not crush, chew, or break it unless your prescriber says otherwise.
• Take it exactly as directed by your doctor, usually once daily if prescribed for BPH.
• If your label says to take it after a meal, follow that instruction to help steady absorption and reduce dizziness.
• Take it at the same time each day to make it easier to remember.
• Stand up slowly after taking it, especially when you first start treatment, because dizziness can happen.
• Do not take extra tablets to make up for a missed dose unless your prescriber instructs you to do so.

Each Urinice Tablet provides the labeled tamsulosin dose in tablet form, and this is the exact strength your doctor has selected for you. It is typically taken once daily, and the maximum daily amount should not be exceeded unless a prescriber specifically changes the plan; your doctor decides the right dose based on your symptoms and how you tolerate it.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
