['To evaluate the efficacy of sildenafil citrate only, 25 mg. Four times/week, tamsulosin only, 0.4 mg once daily, and the combination of both on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) suggestive of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and erectile dysfunction.', 'A total of 60 men with BPH-related LUTS were randomized to receive sildenafil citrate only (n = 20), tamsulosin only (n = 20), and the combination of both (n = 20) for 8 weeks. Changes from baseline in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), maximum urinary flow rate (Q (max)), post voiding residual urine volume (PRV), Sexual Health Inventory for Male (SHIM) score, 3rd and 4th questions of International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) were assessed at the end of the treatment.', 'The mean age was 58 years. IPSS, Q (max), PRV, SHIM scores, and 3rd and 4th questions in IIEF significantly improved in each group. Improvement of IPSS was more remarkable in combination (40.1%) and tamsulosin only (36.2%) groups in comparison with sildenafil citrate only group (28.2%; p < 0.001). Improvement of Q (max) and PRV were greater in tamsulosin only and combination than sildenafil citrate only group. SHIM scores significantly improved in sildenafil citrate only (65%) and combination (67.4%) than tamsulosin only (12.4%; p < 0.001). Increases in the 3rd and 4th questions of IIEF were greater in sildenafil only and combination than tamsulosin only (p < 0.001).'] Is sildenafil citrate and tamsulosin combination superior to monotherapy in treating lower urinary tract symptoms and erectile dysfunction?
