Tamsulosin -- Pounding heart

Tamsulosin does what it's supposed to do...gets you peeing again... but the side effects have got me asking...do all alpha blockers cause pounding heart and fatigue? I'd switch to another prescription if possible...I don't like how this stuff makes my heart pound, along with the fatigue.

I have not experienced pounding heart that I recall. I have experienced fatigue early on, but that seems to improve as your body adjusts to the drug and is not uncommon with many pharmaceuticals. I have not tried other alpha blockers due to cost, Flowmax seems to be significantly more affordable under my medical plan.
