    Soon after taking this drug, my skin began to erupt with blisters filled with clear pus. The blisters were itchy and highly uncomfortable. I had to stop the medication at once, at which time the old blisters shrank and eventually disappeared. I switched to Alfazosin, which doesn't cause such bad side effects.

    I used to rush or sometimes didn't make it to the bathroom and make a mess, although I've developed dry eyes, the medication has done wonders for me. I can hold my bladder for longer periods. I don't mind the sexual side effects at my age 67. I still feel great at climax without ejaculation.
