A member asked:
I am on flomax for 5 to 10 years now can i get this as a chronic medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Many people are on Tamulosin (Flomax) chronically for prostate issues. The best way to get on the medication on a chronic basis is to establish care with a primary care physician, as they can monitor you for side effects over time. Hope this helps!
