The name of your tablets is Xatral. This belongs to a group of medicines called alpha-blockers. Xatral can be used to treat the symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. This is when the prostate gland enlarges (hyperplasia), but the growth is not cancerous (it is benign). It can cause problems in passing water (urine). The prostate gland lies underneath the bladder. It surrounds the urethra. This is the tube that takes your water to the outside of the body. If the prostate gets bigger, it presses on the urethra, making it smaller. This makes it difficult to pass water. Your tablets work by relaxing the prostate gland muscle. This allows the urethra to get bigger and so makes it easier to pass water.
