Hi,

Urimax and Urimax F are both medications used to treat symptoms of an enlarged prostate gland. However, Urimax F contains two active ingredients: Tamsulosin and Finasteride, whereas Urimax contains only Tamsulosin.

Tamsulosin works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate gland and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate. Finasteride, on the other hand, works by reducing the size of the prostate gland, thereby relieving urinary symptoms.

Regarding which medication is more effective for you, it is important to consult with your doctor. They are familiar with your medical history and current condition and can advise you on the appropriate treatment option for your specific case.

Additionally, it is essential to inform your doctor about all the medications you are taking, including Acitrom and Amifru, as they may interact with Urimax or Urimax F, leading to adverse effects. Please consult with your doctor for personalized medical advice.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
