Precautions

Prostate cancer and BPH cause many of the same symptoms. An evaluation should be done to rule out prostate cancer before tamsulosin therapy is started.

People with low blood pressure upon arising (orthostatic hypotension) should be cautious when taking tamsulosin, as it may exacerbate their condition.

Tamsulosin can cause a painful, persistent erection of the penis that is unrelieved by sexual activity (priapism.) This condition can lead to damage or impotence if not treated quickly. If you suspect that you have these symptoms, call your doctor or go to the emergency room as soon as possible.
