General Information On Jalyn

Jalyn is a single-capsule combination of Tamsulosin and Dutasteride Hydrochloride. This drug is used to treat symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) in men with an enlarged prostate. Men over 45 years of age are more likely to suffer from an enlarged prostate, and consequently, might need to buy Jalyn to ease symptoms associated with BPH and Acute Urinary Retention (AUR). Tamsulosin is an Alpha-blocker that relaxes the muscles in the bladder and prostate. Dutasteride works by reducing the size of an enlarged prostate. It may also reduce the risk of prostate-related surgery. The combined benefits of Dutasteride and Tamsulosin Hydrocholride can offer significant relief to men suffering from BPH and enlarged prostate.

Side Effects for Jalyn

While Jalyn is well-tolerated by most men, it can cause some mild to moderate side effects in some cases. Dizziness, lightheadedness, running/stuffy nose, loss in libido, and tender breast or breast enlargement (in men) are some of the common side effects associated with this drug. You must stop taking this medication if you experience severe dizziness or weakness, or painful erection that lasts for more than 4 hours. Jalyn can also decrease libido and the amount of semen discharge during intercourse. Dutasteride and Tamsulosin can sometimes lead to a serious allergic reaction. Breathing problems, hives, itching, or swelling of the face, lips and tongue are early signs of an allergic reaction. If you experience any of these symptoms, call your health practitioner immediately.

Precautions

Inform your doctor if you have any kind of allergies to food products, certain drugs, chemicals or dyes. You must not buy Jalyn if you are allergic to Dutasteride and Tamsulosin. Do not donate blood during the treatment and for at least six month after the cessation of therapy. As drowsiness and dizziness are listed as one of the most common side effects of Jalyn, during the treatment you should avoid activities that require alertness. During the initial phase of the therapy, avoid fast or jerky movements. Alcohol intake should be limited while on this medication.

Jalyn Dosage

The recommended dosage for adults is one Jalyn capsule (0.5 mg Dutasteride and 0.4 mg Tamsulosin Hydrochloride) daily. Ideally, you should take this medicine at the same time each day after your meals. For significant relief, take this medicine continuously for at least 4 weeks. The Jalyn capsule should be swallowed whole and should not be chewed or opened.

Jalyn Interactions

Jalyn can interact with many drugs so it is important to inform your doctor and pharmacist of all the drugs you are currently taking. It should not be co-administered with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors such as Ketoconazole, as this can significantly lower Tamsulosin metabolism rate and increase Tamsulosin exposure. Dutasteride and Tamsulosin should not be taken with Alpha-adrenergic antagonists, as it can increase the risk of symptomatic hypotension. Dutasteride-containing products such as Jalyn should be used with caution in patients who are using potent CYP3A4 enzyme inhibitors such as Ritonavir. Some of the common drugs like Clarithromycin, Sildenafil, Tadalafil, or Prazosin can interact with Jalyn and cause adverse reaction. Alcohol can reduce the efficacy of this drug. So, it is recommended that you avoid alcohol during Jalyn therapy.
