Combination therapy for enlarged prostate symptoms
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining two medicines works better than one alone for easing urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate. If you have bothersome symptoms and a larger prostate, this study may help you find a more effective treatment.
