A total of 100 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms (BPH/OAB), enrolled between June 2006 to March 2008, were randomly divided into 2 groups of morning medication (M) and evening medication (E) groups, then 50
Naftopidil, an α1-adrenoceptor blocker, has been clinically used for the treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia and hypertension. Emerging evidence has shown that naftopidil exhibits an antitumor effect on a variety of cancer types including prostate cancer. The aim of the

To compare the efficacy of three α(1A)/α(1D)-adrenoceptor (AR) antagonists--naftopidil, tamsulosin, and silodosin--that have differing affinities for the α(1)-AR subtypes in treating urinary morbidities in Japanese men with (125)I prostate implantation (PI) for prostate cancer. This single-institution prospective randomized controlled trial

The aim of the present study was to explore the effects of three different types of alpha-1 adrenoceptor blockers (α1-blocker) on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), erectile dysfunction (ED) and ejaculatory dysfunction (EjD) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. A

The interaction of naftopidil with adrenoceptors was studied in comparison to standard drugs. Naftopidil binds specifically to alpha 1-adrenoceptors. The Ki values are 58.3 nM for naftopidil, 0.43 nM for prazosin, and 197 nM for urapidil. The affinities of naftopidil
