I currently take Rapaflow along with Fineresteride. I'm still waking 4-6 times each night to urinate. not only that, but I Have retrograde ejaculations during sex. I've been prescribed Cialis (tadalafil) for ED. When I have Taken a 20mg Cialis, either I won't have a need to urinate during the night, or I might be awakened once to urinate.

Never have I been so inflicted with a rash, among other things while providing absolutely NO relief for my prostate problem!! I was bed-ridden for over a month after taking only two pills, one each on consecutive days.
