When the drug was compared to placebo therapy, obstructive and irritative voiding sympment with conventional treatments for 4 weeks. When the drug was compared to placebo therapy, obstructive and irritative voiding symptoms were improved (p<0.05). No side effects were noted except one who had indigestion.
