My urologist gave me the prescription, Tamsulosin Hydrochloride, for slow urination and I wont see him until December.  It has not had much effect and I have had a dull ache in my left kidney area and wonder if this is a reaction or side effect from this medication?
HIT hanks for your query. The use of tamsulosin is unlikely to cause loin pain (pain in the area where the kidneys are located). If the pain is associated with fever, burning sensation when you pee or is progressively increasing, then you need to consult a urologist. Else you could try some simple analgesics. Hope this helps Good luck
