Patient summary
Dutasteride with tamsulosin as a hard capsule, used in the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia. One shrinks the prostate, the other relaxes its muscle.
Mechanism of action
Dutasteride shrinks the prostate by inhibiting 5-alpha reductase, while tamsulosin relaxes smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder neck to improve urine flow.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Women who are pregnant or may be pregnant should not handle the capsule. Breastfeeding: Not applicable.
Jalyn is a tablet that combines two active ingredients: dutasteride, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, and tamsulosin, an alpha-1 blocker. It is supplied in a 0.4/0.5mg strength and is used in the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia. The same combination also appears under the name Combodart, and the originator company is GlaxoSmithKline.
Dutasteride reduces prostate size by blocking 5-alpha reductase, while tamsulosin relaxes smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder neck so urine passes more freely. Changes usually take 2 to 4 weeks to appear, and treatment is ongoing. Dutasteride is absorbed through the skin, so handle the tablets with caution; women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not handle them, as contact may harm the fetus.
