Product introduction

Prostese Soft Gelatin Capsule is a medicine used in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It helps reduce prostate enlargement by lowering levels of a hormone called DHT, which can contribute to prostate growth.

Take Prostese Soft Gelatin Capsule in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. Take it regularly and at the same time each day for maximum results. Do not stop taking the medicine without consulting your doctor as that may reduce its effectiveness in managing prostate health. Always follow your doctor’s guidance for optimal use.


The most common side effects of Prostese Soft Gelatin Capsule are abdominal pain and headache. These effects are usually temporary and resolve on their own. However, if you experience any severe or persistent symptoms, consult your doctor.


Prostese Soft Gelatin Capsule is not recommended for individuals who are allergic to plants in the Arecaceae family. Individuals who are on blood-thinning medications or those undergoing hormone-related treatments should consult a doctor before use. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before taking it. Patients should have a medical and urological evaluation before beginning treatment with Prostese Soft Gelatin Capsule to rule out prostate cancer, nephritis, urinary tract infections, and other nephro-urological disorders.

How Prostese Soft Gelatin Capsule works
