be extremely careful when taking flomax and read the fine print. it tells you that you run the risk of dying from flomax if you do certain reasonable thing. like living.
took flomax for 4 days, worked out in the yard for a couple of hours. laid down on the front porch and stopped breathing. but for the grace of God i am still here, disabled but alive.
user beware.

Wow, I'm actually surprised they allow drugs like this to remain on the market. If death is a side effect, then what's the point of taking it? LOL! no pun intended there.

You can actually report experiences like this to the FDA's med-watch program if you wish to. I'll go ahead and post the link below so you can have a look at it:
fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch/default.htm

Through here, you can report serious medical product problems and other related information to the FDA. I would honestly be too scared to continue taking that medication if this happened to me.

Is your doctor aware of what happened?
