Bphlo DS 8mg/0.5mg Capsule is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in adults. The prostate is a small, muscular gland in the male reproductive system. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common condition that occurs when the cells of the prostate gland begin to multiply.

Bphlo DS 8mg/0.5mg Capsule is a combination of Silodosin and Dutasteride.
