For curing enlarged prostate, an efficient treatment is needed. Avodart is a commonly-used medicine for patients with this disease. It can prevent the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the body. DHT is involved in the development of enlarged prostate. However, as different man may react differently to the same medicines, not all patients can get some relief or get a full recovery by taking this medicine. On the other hand, it will also cause signs of an allergic reaction like hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
