First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether combining tamsulosin with either a standard or half dose of tadalafil can better relieve symptoms caused by ureteric stents, such as pain, urgency, and discomfort. Researchers will enroll 140 adults who have a stent placed after kidney stone removal. The goal is to see which dose combination works best without causing more side effects.
