TAMSULOSIN HYDROCHLORIDE
Adrenergic alpha-Antagonists [MoA]; alpha-Adrenergic Blocker [EPC]
Drugs that bind to and block the activation of ADRENERGIC ALPHA-1 RECEPTORS.
Drugs used in the treatment of urological conditions and diseases such as URINARY INCONTINENCE and URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS.
DescriptionTamsulosin hydrochloride is the hydrochloride form of Tamsulosin (Trade name: Alna ® / Flomax ®). It is a kind of medication used for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), boosting the passage of kidney stones. It can also be used for the treatment of acute urinary retention. It is a kind of selective antagonist of alpha-1A and alpha-1B-adrenoceptros located in prostate, prostatic capsule, prostatic urethra, and bladder neck. The blockage of these receptors through Tamsulosin causes the relaxation of smooth muscles in the bladder neck and prostate.
DescriptionTamsulosin is a potent antagonist of α1-adrenergic receptors (α1-ARs; Ki = 0.229 nM in a radioligand binding assay). It is 3,800-fold selective for α1-ARs over α2-ARs (Ki = 871 nM). Tamsulosin antagonizes norepinephrine-induced contraction of isolated rabbit aorta (pA2 = 10.11) but has no effect on contraction stimulated by histamine, serotonin , angiotensin II , or prostaglandin F2α . In vivo, tamsulosin reverses the pressor effect of phenylephrine (Item Nos. 17205 | 18619) in pithed rats. It reversibly reduces fertility in male rats when administered at a dose of 0.15 mg/kg. Tamsulosin (1-100 μg/kg) also reduces prostatic pressure in a dose-dependent manner with minimal hypotensive effects in anesthetized dogs. Formulations containing tamsulosin have been used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

General DescriptionTamsulosin hydrochloride is a subtypeselective a1A and a1D adrenoceptor antagonist, which exists in two enantiomeric forms, of which the R-isomer is the pharmaceutically active component. It is used to reduce urinary obstruction and is also involved in relieving the symptoms associated with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia.
