Tadalafil Ameliorates Symptoms of Patients with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Complicated by Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome


To examine the efficacy and safety of tadalafil in the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia with chronic pelvic pain syndrome, we treated 23 Japanese men with tadalafil 5 mg once daily for 4 weeks. The mean age of the participants was 58.7 years and the prostate volume was 25.2 ml. Significant improvements in total International Prostatic Symptom Score, International Prostatic Symptom Score Quality of Life Index, total National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index score, pain subscore, urinary symptom subscore, and quality of life impact subscore, were observed for tadalafil versus before treatment. These findings confirm that tadalafil is a valuable new treatment option for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia complicated by chronic pelvic pain syndrome.

Interesting.... Any one know a good REAL pharmacy in Canada that uses generic and what the cost is for a 5mg pill. I think I can get a prescription from my uro next time I see him. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to damn costly here even with health insurance as most policy place it in HIGH co-pay..... If they even cover it....

Canadian residents now have a real bona fide option for obtaining generic tadalafil thanks to Mylan Pharmaceuticals win in the courts. Lilly challenged them on their Canadian patent and Mylan finally has won the notice of compliance they were served with and is producing a generic.

While I can't provide any real costs I would see your doctor and speak with him right away about a script for it and please let us know what the cost differences are.

Some information on their proceedings summary with Lilly challenging them on their patent:
