Tamsulosin administration for prophylaxis and treatment of stent-related symptoms

Abstract

The study of efficacy and safety of tamsulosin in therapy of stent-related symptoms has demonstrated that tamsulosin relieves stent-related irritative symptoms and improves quality of life. Further prospective trials are needed to finally assess tamsulosin efficacy.
