Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.The study is to measure the change in IPSS from baseline to 12 weeks. 2.To provide rapid and optimal relief from the symptoms. 3.To reduce the prostatic smooth muscle size.Timepoint: Visit 1- On Day 1, Baseline Visit 2- 2nd week Visit 3- 6th week Visit 4- 12th week

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Evaluate improvements in quality of life related to urinary symptoms. 2.Assess post-void residual volume to evaluate bladder emptying efficiency. 3.Monitor and compare the incidence of adverse events to evaluate the safety profiles of both treatment regimens (Silodosin 8mg monotherapy vs. FDC of Silodosin 8mg with Tadalafil 5mg). 4.If the symptoms worsen, patient to be managed with surgical procedures.Timepoint: Visit 1- On Day 1, Baseline Visit 2- 2nd week Visit 3- 6th week Visit 4- 12th week
