Drug Uses
Proscar is used alone or in combination with other drugs to cure benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH, enlargement of the prostate gland). Proscar improves symptoms of BPH such as frequent and difficult urination and may reduce the chance of acute urinary retention (suddenly being unable to pass urine). It also may decrease the chance of needing prostate surgery.
How Taken
Proscar comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken once a day with or without food intake. Take Proscar at around the same time every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your physician or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Proscar exactly as
directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than ordered by your doctor.
Additional Information
Keep all appointments with your physician. Before having any laboratory test, tell your physician and the laboratory personnel that you are taking Proscar. Do not let anyone else take your medication. Ask your pharmacist any questions you have about refilling your prescription.
