Product Information:

TASMI 20mg Tablets contain Tamsulosin Hydrochloride 20mg — however, this strength is not pharmacologically accurate.

⚠️ Correction & Clarification:

The standard and globally accepted dose of Tamsulosin for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is 0.4mg once daily. A "20mg" strength does not exist in clinical practice and likely represents a labeling or typographical error (e.g., confusion with another drug like telmisartan or atorvastatin).

The correct formulation should be:

1. Tamsulosin HCl 0.4mg (not 20mg)

Assuming TASMI 20MG TABLETS is a misprint and intended to be TASMI 0.4MG TABLETS, the following description applies:
