Better Way lb Treat A Common Prostate Problem
UNAra;?mere is now a more
effective way to treat the symptoms
of prostate enlargement,
according to an unprecedented
study in The New England
Journal of Medicine.
In many cases, doctors have
prescribed Proscar to treat the
condition. However, the study
shows there's another drug that is
superior in symptom relief.
A Department of Veterans
Affairs Medical Research Service
study found that Hytrin, manufactured
by Abbott Laboratories,
effectively treated the symptoms
of benign prostatic hyperplasia, or
BPH.
"Across the board, Hytrin was
superior to Proscar in symptom
relief," said Df. Herbert Lijpor,
chief investigator for the study' ''
BPH affects one in thrde meri
over the age of 50. The symptoms
range from frequent nighttime
urination to complete obstruction
of urinary flow. In the past, men
have opted to correct the problem
surgically. However, this study
demonstrates certain men can
relieve the symptoms of BPH
using Hytrin, thus avoiding the
costly, and sometimes risky, surgical
procedure.
The drug works by relaxing the

said Dr. Lepor.
The study, conducted over a

men, was funded- and approved
by the Veterans Administration
