Question
may I take avodart and flowmax at the same time

Answer
    Avodart and Flomax may be taken at the same time if necessary.  The combination does show an increase in side effects over taking only 1 medication, but that is true in many cases.  The most common side effects seen when taking both medications together were impotence, decreased libido, breast enlargement or tenderness, ejaculatory disorders, and dizziness.  I would discuss these possible side effects with your doctor before you start taking both medications together.

Thanks

Barb Judge
