Indication and Important Safety Information About AVODART® (dutasteride)
AVODART alone and in combination with the alpha blocker tamsulosin is indicated for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men with an enlarged prostate to improve symptoms. AVODART alone also reduces the risk of acute urinary retention (AUR) and prostate surgery. AUR is a condition, possibly requiring surgery, where the prostate is so enlarged that it completely blocks urine coming from the bladder.
Only your health care provider can tell if your symptoms are from BPH and not a more serious condition, such as prostate cancer. See your doctor for regular exams.
Women and children should not take AVODART. Women who are or could become pregnant should not handle AVODART due to the potential risk of a specific birth defect.
Do not donate blood until at least 6 months after stopping AVODART.
Tell your doctor if you have liver disease. AVODART may not be right for you.
Possible side effects, including sexual side effects and swelling or tenderness of the breast, occur infrequently. Dizziness and an increase in drug-related ejaculation disorders also occurred with combination therapy (AVODART and tamsulosin).
While some men have fewer problems and symptoms after 3 months of treatment with AVODART, a treatment period of at least 6 months is usually necessary to see if AVODART will work for you.
