Terazosin (Hytrin), doxazosin (Cardura), and alfuzosin (Uroxatral) cost under $20 a prescription. They are older drugs, so are likely less prescribed.

If you are at risk for dementia with Lewy bodies, or possibly Parkinson’s, and are taking a prostate medicine, talk with your doctor. It may be worth switching your prescription.

This was an association, not proof, but there was no benefit found for other prostate medicines and dementia with Lewy bodies.

A new study suggests that certain drugs commonly used to treat enlarged prostate may also decrease the risk for dementia

Maybe that's why I'm so smart!

Urologist supplements my Flomax with offscript Monoxidil tabs. Can’t tell a real difference in the flow...but I’ve got hair growing on my elbows.
