Drug Uses
Proscar is used alone or in combination with other medications to heal benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH, enlargement of the prostate gland). Proscar improves symptoms of BPH such as frequent and difficult urination and can reduce the chance of acute urinary retention (suddenly being unable to pass urine). It also may decrease the chance of needing prostate surgery.
How Taken
Proscar comes as a pill to take by mouth. It is usually taken once a day with or without food intake. Take Proscar at around the same time every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and call your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you don't understand. Use Proscar exactly as ordered. Don't use more or less of it or use it more often than determined by your physician.
More Information
Keep all appointments with your doctor. Before having any laboratory test, tell your physician and the laboratory personnel that you are taking Proscar. Don't let anyone else take your medication. Ask your pharmacist any questions you have about refilling your prescription.
