You can try both drugs before bed time. If not improved, then you may need a higher dose of tamsulosin 0.8 mg/day or 0.4 mg, twice a day along with tadalafil or a different alpha-1 blocker such as alfuzosin or silodosin may be considered. Good luck.

This could mean that your prostate symptoms have increased and might need looking into and possible increase in dosage- sp of tamsulosin. Timing of taking the drugs will not change their effectiveness. Pl consult your Urologist
