Thank you VERY much for the tips Tensor! Somewhere in my surfing today I did come across tamsulosin and I wrote it down to remember.
Funny you mentioned Nortriptyline since it is the one my doctor prescribed and it is waiting on my desk for a first dose. I want to feel my way with Ixel first.
I am a little confused on Nortriptyline. You say it blocks alpha-1 by default. In other words, even though it stimulates NE like Ixel does, it has a built-in blocking ability to counter the urologial effects somewhat? Am I understanding that correctly?
> I take Edronax, I have also taken Ixel, both gave me severe urological problems. Problems includes difficult to urinate, impotence and pain in that area. It is caused by NE stimulation of alpha-1 receptors and the solution is tamsulosin 0.4mg daily, an alpha-1 blocker which I use with 100% success. Naftodipil should also work. Tricyclic agents like nortriptyline blocks alpha-1 receptors "by default".
