Hi,
Welcome to HCM!
No, Roliflo is not an antibiotic. It consists of Tamsulosin and Tolterodine.
It is useful in conditions such as Reflux, Eneuresis and Prostate hypertrophy.
It may cause short term side effects like Headache, Drowsiness, Palpitation, Tachycardia, Dry mouth, Blurred vision, Hypotension, Constipation.
Hope this information is helpful. Feel free to ask if you have any doubt.
With regards,
Dr. Sridhar
