Medical management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) giving rise to lower urinary tract symptomatology (LUTS) has emerged as the mainstay for first-line therapy. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is the most important method of detecting prostate carcinoma. The effect of finasteride on PSA has been widely reported. Little data exist with respect to alpha-adrenergic blocking therapy in men treated for BPH. In the present investigation we set out to evaluate the effect of these two forms of therapy.
