| 1 | Kidney stone | Took one DAMM pill now my sinus are killing me | DONT TAKE FLOWMAX | M | 34 | 1 days ??? | 6/25/2015 | 4 | kidney stone | Dizziness upon standing. | It did increase my Urine flow. Also made fritz "poofy". Wasn't expecting that. | M | 53 | 10 days | 5/27/2015 | 1 | Kidney stones | Retrograde ejaculations | I have not gotten better since I started taking this medicine. | M | 39 | 3 days .4mg | 5/13/2015 | 1 | BPH | Originally when I started taking this drug it decreased frequency of urination during the daytime and my stream was a tad stronger. Eventually after about 2 months these effects diminished. I started feeling very tired,bit anxious, loss of strength, muscle soreness and back and body aches as well as experiencing what is called retrograde ejaculation. Didn't associate these symptoms to the Flomax until last week when I actually read the material provided by the pharmacy. I stopped taking it 4 days ago and feel so much better and have been urinating less than when I was taking it. Go figure! I will never take Flomax again and will start my own treatment taking vitamin E, flaxseed oil,zinc and saw palmetto. | M | 67 | 8 months .4mg | 5/11/2015 | 5 | Kidney stones | Awesome. Made me even more horny and the orgasms are fantastic! Extended ejaculations and ready to go again very soon after. Passed the kidney stones with no problems. | I love this drug.... maybe a little too much. LOL! | M | 52 | 21 days 30 MG 1X day | 5/9/2015 | 1 | ICW KIDNEY STONES | I had an excruciating toothache that started in the gum behind the back lower teeth. The pain then radiated to the right side of my face so that I couldn't tell if it was my tooth or and ear infection. Visited both my doctor and my dentist and neither found anything wrong. I stopped taking Flomax and my toothache was gone the next day. I don't know that it was the Flomax but the fact that the toothache went away within 24 hours of stopping seems to be enough proof for me. I will speak with my urologist to see if there is an alternative medication. Also sexual side effects - no ejaculate with a weak erection. I could live with that temporarily - but I could not live with the pain. Luckily I had a few Oxycodone pills from my Urologist - but honestly even they had little effect on the pain. | M | 68 | 7 days 1X day | 4/19/2015 | 1 | kidney stone | headache and dizziness when waking up, increased urination, and NO Ejaculation!! what a horror after taking only 2 pills my sexual desire was low and i could not ejaculate any sperm! big no no! | would not ever take it again!! | M | 30 | 2 days 0.4 | 4/6/2015 | 1 | Bph | Dr prescribed for prostate, took first dose at bedtime as recommended , could not function next day felt like had it slept all day in a haze tooth ache and general feeling of exhaustion, quit after 1st dose, although it did help with bathroom visits it's not worth the side effects to me. | M | 56 | 1 days 4 | 3/30/2015 | 3 | Very slow urine flow and dribbling | Rapid pounding heart, a little lightheadedness, constant persistent erections, semi frequent bedwetting. | So nice to be able to pee normally again, great volume no more dribbling. Side effects not great but not debilitating | M | 55 | 2 months 4 mg 1X day | 2/13/2015 | 1 | BPH frequent urge to urinate | Day 1: Headache, fatigue Day 2: Headache, severe jaw pain on both sides, swollen glands in throat, soar throat, swollen/dry lips, insomnia, body aches, hot/cold spells. | Stopped medication due to severe side effects. Can't wait until this is completely out of my system. | M | 43 | 2 days 0.4 MG 1X day | 2/10/2015 | 1 | Kidney stones | Joint pain in thumb and a toothache from hell worst I every had made kidney stones feel good tooth is killing me | Would not recommend it to any friends or even someone I dislike | M | 52 | 2 days 4 | 2/9/2015 | 1 | Weak flow | Crazy dreams unable to sleep high heart rate hallucinations unstable to walks | Do not take!!!!! | M | 91 | 3 days 1X day | 2/6/2015 | 1 | Enlarged prostate | Muscle weakness (especially on one side of body...scary), decreased ejaculate, joint pain, rapid heartbeat, anxiety | This drug did help somewhat with my difficulty urinating, but so far it isn't worth the sides. Naturally, doc said nothing about there being side effects. I have PTSD so the last thing I need is a drug that causes anxiety. These side effects are scary. Unless you have to go the ER to urinate, or your abdominal discomfort is just too much, stay away from this shit. | M | 57 | 1 days 0.4 mg 1X day | 2/3/2015 | 1 | Enlarged prostate | Extreme toothache, both on the lower jaw and upper jaw. It started with 1 tooth, I thought it was just a localized dental problem. It spread to the entire mouth in a day. The pain was excruciating, imagine you may have root canal on all of your teeth at the same time without anesthesia! Beside the extreme toothache, I also experienced hot, cold spells, headache, body ache, restless. I have stopped using it for 2 days now, the toothache is slowly going away, still have hot and cold spell and fatigue. I hoping once the drug is completely flushed from my system, I'll be back to normal | I just can't recommend this drug at all | M | 53 | 4 days 0.4mg 1X day | 2/2/2015 | 3 | Ureter kink or stone after surgery | Dizziness, fatigue, confusion, increased heartbeat, annoying light headache, stuffy nose, no energy, disturbed sleep, depressed feeling. | I am taking this for a possible kink in my uretur or stone stuck after 2 surgeries to get kidney stones out. My doctor said its not meant for women, but will be used "off label" because FDA only approves it for male use. It's helped my flow and backed up pain in my kidney but do not like the side effects. Considering discontinuing it today. | F | 34 | 4 days | 1/30/2015 | 1 | Kidney Stones | Dizziness,weakness, fatigue, drymouth and lips, stuffy nose, hot flashes, lower back pain, and overall feeling of not feeling well | Wouldn't recommend anyone to take it | M | 38 | 4 weeks 10mg | 12/31/2014 | 2 | Enlarged prostrate | Sleep disruption w/dry mouth and strange dreams. Headaches, runny nose,fatigue along with flu like symptoms. Little to no ejaculate which had never occurred before. | This all started when I explained to the Dr that I occasionally had a strong urge to urinate and occasionally had trouble waiting. The need to urinate throughout the night would arise on occasion as well. Meds took care of the immediate issues but the side effects weren't worth it. Meds had me feeling lousy so I've discontinued use after 10 days. | M | 60 | 10 days 0.4 mg 1X day | 12/29/2014 | 2 | Two Kidney Stones | No sexual desire or stamina, dry ejaculations, severely stuffed nose, hangover feeling for all days on it so far. | Still haven't passed kidney stones but my happiness has been ripped out of my life so....there's that. | M | 30 | 5 days | 12/10/2014 | 1 | Slow to start urine flow. | Racing heart rate (120 BPM), total exhaustion, faint feeling, heart fibrillation, vision problems, shortness of breath, bllod clot and stroke. | M | 60 | 6 days 1X day | 12/9/2014 | 1 | Kidney stone | Having had a bad case of Gout, my uric acid went crazy which resulted in kidney stones. my doctor prescribed flomax to take at bedtime. I took one dosage, and woke up feeling lots of anxiety. Approximately an hour later I felt dizziness, severe weakness, and something similar to a hot flash, and a cold sweat. My wife applied a cold washcloth to my forehead which seem to bring me back. | I will never use it again, and I recommend anyone attempting to use this to use at your own risk. | M | 53 | 1 days 30 mg | 12/5/2014 |
