What are the doses you all are taking of Flomax?
I understand there are some side effects.
I have been on it for 6 months and my dose is 0.4 mg
and my Uro wants me to take them twice a day.
Is 0.4 Mg the norm?
Any side effects like pelvis discomfort?

As I recall from the literature there is only a 20% improvement in going to
the max dose .8mg from the normal dose .4mg (but if you need it worthwhile I
guess). Jim W.

If you have insurance get a microwave like I did and forget the drugs. I
sleep most nights without getting up.
