Abstract

Twenty-eight patients with benign prostatic hypertrophy were observed in a controlled study to determine the effectiveness of low-dose phenoxybenzamine. No statistically significant benefit on flow rate, residual urine, or urethral profile pressure was shown. It is concluded that phenoxybenzamine in low doses is ineffective in reducing the physical obstruction of the enlarged prostate gland.
