Patients Report Greater Sexual Satisfaction with BPH Drug Combination
Men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) might have improvements in sexual satisfaction by taking a combination of dutasteride and solifenacin.
A recent Journal of Sexual Medicine study reported that men who took 0.5 mg of dutasteride and 20 mg of solifenacin had higher rates of sexual function satisfaction compared to men who took dutasteride alone or dutasteride with 10 mg of solifenacin.
The men took the medications once daily for six months.
All 317 men in the study saw their urinary symptoms improve from baseline, regardless of the doses they took. Erectile function did not change, and ejaculatory function was "fractionally" decreased.
Forty-one men dropped out of the study, however. The authors called for more research.
