Welcome to HCM.
Dutas -t contains dutasteride and tamisulosin and used for BPH.
This drug relaxes the muscle around the prostate, freeing the flow of urine and decreasing urinary symptoms.
Giddiness is not commonly seen with this drug but it is better to inform your doctor to review the dose and other medicines.
Go for regular follow up of PSA and USG prostrate.
Keep in touch with your doctor.
