Does Taking Finasteride And Tamsulosin Cause Breathlessness?

My husband has been short of breath can this be a side effect of finasteride This has been for over a year and he had numerous tests that showed no reason for the shortness of breath. He is also on tamsulosin and I noticed this can cause shortness of breath as well.
