I could not find any information on whether it helps open up a prostate gland that is artificially constricted by a drug such as Savella (probably cause is noradrenaline, but could be similar to tricyclics....it can have some dry mouth and constipation similar to tricyclics).

Here's a good one that I use. It counteracts the actions of drugs that affect norepinephrine. It relaxes the prostate. I believe it works similar to hytrin.
