Tadalafil versus alpha blockers (alfuzosin, doxazosin, tamsulosin and silodosin) as medical expulsive therapy for < 10 mm distal and proximal ureteral stones

Abstract

Expulsion rate was higher in silodosin and tadalafil for distal ureteral stones but the difference didn't meet statistical significance. However the expulsion rate was significantly higher in tadalafil than in the other groups for mid-proximal ureteral stones. The result of this study showed that tadalafil may increases ureteric stone expulsion.
