Hello dear,
Antibiotics are administered to control any infection of the urinary tract or Prostate (Prostate).
It will not reduce the size of prostate gland.
For prostate enlargement, you need to take medications containing the following preparations:
1. Finasteride- it inhibits formation of the hormone which causes prostate enlargement.
2. Tamsulosin- it relaxes the bladder muscles & prevents the urinary symptoms.
The urinary symptoms will be relieved as you start taking the medications, but reduction in size of the Prostate gland will take some time.
So, kindly consult an Urologist & start treatment accordingly.
Wishing you a good health.
Thanks & take care.
