Hi & Welcome.

Tamsulosin is an alpha1A adrenoceptor antagonist commonly prescribed in the treatment of benign prostatic enlargement.

It is an oblong shaped capsule available in green, blue, olive green, and orange colors having different imprints on it.

The one which is prescribed to you if it is a royal blue oblong shaped capsule and and has an imprint of MYLAN 2500 also contains the same medication Tamsulosin.

There's nothing to worry you can take as prescribed by your doctor.
Hope this answers your query.
Best regards.
