A member asked:

Is it possible after 5weeks flomax (tamsulosin) my tight bladder neck symptoms still there i won't respond and need surgery? or it be something else causing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and no: Flomax is one of the three specific alpha blockers available. So if one does not work, there are two more one can try: Rapaflo (silodosin) and Uroxatrol.

Dr Amico Jr and 3 doctors agreed
