Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Hytrin is a brand name of drug “terazocin” and it is used for enlarged prostate. In your case the prostate is of normal size and so hyrtin is not indicated. If he has got symptoms like urgency and dribbling, he can take hytrin empirically.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
