Use of alpha-blockers to relieve lower urinary tract symptoms in benign prostatic hyperplasia

Abstract

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), which are quite common especially in elderly men, may be caused by a number of diseases. A sharp decline in the quality of life forces patients to see an urologist who has to apply a differentiated approach in order to identify the cause of LUTS and choose the correct method of treatment.
