RAPAFLO is indicated for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Important Safety Information
RAPAFLO is approved to treat male urinary symptoms due to BPH, also called an enlarged prostate. RAPAFLO should not be used to treat high blood pressure. Only your doctor can tell if you have BPH, not a more serious condition like prostate cancer. RAPAFLO should not be used in patients with severe liver or kidney disease as well as those taking certain antifungal or HIV drugs. Avoid driving or hazardous tasks until you know how RAPAFLO will affect you, as a sudden drop in blood pressure may occur, rarely resulting in fainting. If considering cataract surgery, tell your eye surgeon you're currently taking RAPAFLO or have taken it in the past. Side effects include orgasm with reduced or no semen, dizziness, diarrhea, lightheadedness upon standing or sitting up abruptly, headache, swelling of the throat and nasal passages, and stuffy nose.
Rapid symptom relief. Designed to target the problem. One capsule daily.
RAPAFLO works quickly to relax muscles in the prostate gland and parts of the bladder.6 This improves urine flow in a few hours and reduces uncomfortable symptoms such as frequent urination, sudden urge to urinate, waking at night to urinate, weak or interrupted stream, straining to urinate, and feeling that the bladder is not completely empty after urinating, within days.
How does RAPAFLO work?
RAPAFLO belongs to a group of drugs known as alpha-blockers and works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and the bladder neck (the area where the bladder joins the urethra).3 This improves urine flow through the urethra and reduces symptoms within a few days.
Selectivity: Works Where It Counts
RAPAFLO is different from older alpha-blockers because it is designed to target the specific areas of the body involved in BPH: the prostate and the neck of the bladder. This makes RAPAFLO a highly selective alpha-blocker.
In medical studies, RAPAFLO provided significant relief in:
* Older and younger men2
* Men with severe BPH symptoms2
* Men also taking other medications for cardiovascular* conditions2
Simple dosing
Most often, your doctor will prescribe one RAPAFLO capsule daily, with a meal.6 Consult with your doctor if you have any other questions about how to take RAPAFLO.
In general, if you stop treatment, BPH symptoms may return.
*Patients on alpha blockers were excluded
