Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Silodosin 8 mg Drug: Silodosin
Silodosin 8 mg orally, once daily after morning meal
Experimental: Silodosin 4 mg Drug: Silodosin
Silodosin 4 mg orally, twice daily after morning and evening meal

Detailed Description:

Silodosin is a highly selective α1A-adrenoceptor antagonist for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of BPH. 4mg Silodosin twice daily has been approved in Asia including Japan and Korea. In US, 8mg Silodosin once daily with the FDA approval is already available. Korea has newly adopted 8mg Silodosin once daily. Against these backdrops, this clinical study is designed to demonstrate that the newly adopted dose is not inferior to the existing dose in its efficacy and safety. The study used double-blind, random assignment in Korean men with signs and symptoms of BPH for 12 weeks.
