Improvement of voiding dysfunction due to benign prostatic hyperplasia
This medication is used to improve urinary disturbances caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia, such as weak urinary stream or the sensation of residual urine.
In adults, start treatment with naftopidil at 25mg once daily. If the effect is insufficient, increase the dose stepwise to 50~75mg at intervals of 1~2 weeks and administer orally once daily after a meal. The dose may be adjusted according to symptoms; however, the maximum daily dose is 75mg.
This medication should not be used in patients with a history of allergic reactions to any of its components. Because this medication contains lactose, it should not be administered to patients with genetic disorders that prevent lactose digestion. Caution should be exercised in patients with impaired liver function, as the blood concentration of this medication may increase. Patients with severe heart or cerebrovascular problems have limited experience with this medication, so caution is advised. Elderly patients may have reduced liver function, leading to a higher risk of increased blood concentration as the drug is eliminated more slowly from the body. Caution is warranted when taken with antihypertensives or certain vasodilators, as blood pressure may drop too low. Patients with orthostatic hypotension may experience worsening symptoms when taking this medication, so care is required. During the course of taking this medication, side effects such as dizziness, lightheadedness, low blood pressure, and gastrointestinal discomfort may occur, and symptoms should be closely monitored. If any serious adverse reactions, such as severe liver dysfunction or loss of consciousness, occur, the medication should be discontinued immediately and medical advice sought. Overdose of this medication can lead to excessively low blood pressure, so the dosage must be adhered to precisely. During the initial dosing or when the dosage is suddenly increased, symptoms such as dizziness or lightheadedness may occur, so it is advisable to avoid working at heights or driving. If taking antihypertensives, changes in blood pressure should be closely monitored, and dosage adjustments may be necessary as needed. Keep out of reach of children and be sure to instruct them to take the medication out of the packaging for consumption to avoid injury to the esophagus if swallowed while still in the package. Elderly persons should be carefully monitored and administered with caution due to the possibility of decreased liver function. If any uncomfortable symptoms occur during the course of taking this medication, immediately report them to a healthcare provider for appropriate action.
