Abstract

For the treatment of acute urinary retention (AUR) as one of the most serious complications of adenoma of the prostate (BPH), α-adrenoblockers are widely used. The article presents an experience of the use of the new uroselective α-adrenoblocker silodosin approved for the treatment of patients with urination disorders caused by BPH. Its pharmacological profile has a number of advantages, including the highest uroselectiveness at the present day, immediate action, the potential for the use of standard dose of 8 mg 1 time a day, which does not require a correction depending on the age, and the possibility of the simultaneous application with antihypertensive drugs.
