Summary

Ureteral stenting is a common urological procedure performed to relieve obstruction and facilitate urinary drainage. Despite its effectiveness, stent-related symptoms (SRS) such as dysuria, frequency, urgency, flank pain, and sexual discomfort negatively affect patient quality of life.

Pharmacological management with alpha-blockers such as Tamsulosin and phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE5i) such as Tadalafil has shown promise in reducing SRS. While low-dose Tadalafil (2.5 mg) has not been explored, its comparative effectiveness against the standard 5 mg dose when combined with Tamsulosin remains under-researched. This study aims to evaluate the difference in reduction of SRS between Tamsulosin with Tadalafil in standard and half dosage.
