Apart from its primary use, this medicine also helps in reducing inflammation in the kidneys and improving urine flow by relaxing certain muscles. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with larger kidney stones, as it assists in stone passage while reducing discomfort.

Before starting this medicine, it's important to consult your doctor for the right dosage and frequency. Be sure to inform them about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications you might be taking. If you experience any side effects while using this medicine, notify your doctor immediately.

Tamflo DFZ Capsule is taken orally.

Tamflo DFZ Capsule might have the following side effects:

Dizziness
Headache
Fatigue
Orthostatic Hypotension: This refers to a sudden drop in blood pressure when you stand up from sitting or lying down, which may cause you to feel faint.
Ejaculatory Disorders: These include issues such as ejaculation failure or retrograde ejaculation, where semen goes into the bladder instead of out of the penis during sexual climax.
Gastrointestinal disturbances: These might manifest as nausea, constipation or diarrhoea.
Increased appetite and weight gain
Insomnia or sleep disturbances.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve by discontinuing the use of Tamflo DFZ Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Orthostatic Hypotension: Rise slowly from a sitting or lying position to avoid feeling dizzy or fainting.
Gastrointestinal disturbances: Stay away from junk food for a few days.

Tamflo DFZ Capsule contains two active ingredients:

Deflazacort (30 mg): This is a corticosteroid which reduces swelling and inflammation in the kidneys by suppressing the production of inflammatory mediators in the body. This action helps promote the passage of kidney stones and alleviates associated discomfort.
Tamsulosin (0.4 mg): As an alpha-1 receptor antagonist, Tamsulosin targets the smooth muscles in the bladder, neck and prostate. Relaxing these muscles improves urine flow and facilitates easier passage of kidney stones through the urinary tract.

Together, these two components work synergistically to address kidney stone symptoms effectively.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, caution is advised while taking Tamflo DFZ Capsule. It's best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Tamflo DFZ Capsule should be used with caution during breastfeeding. Speak with your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

While using Tamflo DFZ Capsule, it is advised to limit your alcohol intake as it may aggravate certain side effects.

Liver

If you have liver health issues, especially severe liver impairment, please exercise caution when using Tamflo DFZ Capsule. Discuss these concerns with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Kidney

For those with a history of kidney problems, caution is advised when taking Tamflo DFZ Capsule. Consult your doctor before starting this medication.

Using Machines & Driving

Since Tamflo DFZ Capsule can cause dizziness, it's important to be careful when driving or operating machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.

Allergy

If you have known allergies to Deflazacort or Tamsulosin, or any other ingredients in Tamflo DFZ Capsule, avoid using this medicine.

Children

Caution is advised while giving Tamflo DFZ Capsule to children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should use Tamflo DFZ Capsule under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects and might also have liver and kidney issues. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Tamflo DFZ Capsule interacts with the following medicines:

CYP3A4 inhibitors: Specific medications like ketoconazole and clarithromycin may increase the concentration of deflazacort and tamsulosin in your body.
CYP2D6 inhibitors: Medicines such as fluoxetine and paroxetine may cause an increase in tamsulosin exposure.
Anticoagulants: Deflazacort, being a corticosteroid, may enhance the effects of blood-thinning medicines, thus increasing the risk of bleeding.
NSAIDs: Using deflazacort along with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines like ibuprofen may increase the risk of stomach ulcers and bleeding.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no food interactions reported with Tamflo DFZ Capsule.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Tamflo DFZ Capsule interacts with the following diseases:

Severe liver impairment: As both deflazacort and tamsulosin are metabolised extensively by the liver, patients with severe liver disease need to exercise caution.
Renal impairment: Patients with a history of severe kidney disease should be closely monitored while taking this medicine.
Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding: Deflazacort may worsen these conditions.
Cardiovascular disorders: Tamsulosin might cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when changing positions from sitting or lying down to standing. This is known as orthostatic hypotension.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Tamflo DFZ Capsule should be taken as directed by your doctor. The precise dosage depends on individual factors like your health condition and how your body responds to the medicine. Always follow the prescribed dosage and don't exceed it without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

Taking more than the recommended dose of Tamflo DFZ Capsule can lead to side effects like dizziness, headache, and fatigue. If you've accidentally taken too much, inform your doctor right away.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take a dose of Tamflo DFZ Capsule, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one and resume your regular schedule. Never double up on doses without consulting your doctor.

Store Tamflo DFZ Capsule in a cool, dry place, ideally below 30°C.
Keep the medicine away from light and moisture.
Make sure it is kept out of the reach of children.
Always check the expiry date and use the medicine before it expires.

Keep yourself well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water. This helps in diluting your urine and preventing kidney stones.
Limit your salt intake. A high sodium diet can increase the risk of kidney stones by increasing the amount of calcium your kidneys must filter.
