• Tell your ophthalmologist or surgeon before cataract or glaucoma surgery, as tamsulosin may be associated with intraoperative floppy iris syndrome.
• Inform your doctor if you take medicines for erectile dysfunction, such as sildenafil or tadalafil, because blood pressure may fall further when these medicines are combined.
• Tell your doctor about all medicines and supplements you take.
• Use during pregnancy is generally not relevant because tamsulosin is intended for male urinary symptoms; women should not use it unless specifically prescribed.
