Efficacy of Silodosin, Tadalafil Alone Versus Silodosin Plus Tadalafil as Medical Expulsive Therapy for Lower Ureteric Stones: A Prospective Randomized Placebo Controlled Study
Abstract
This study will compare the efficacy of silodosin, tadalafil versus silodosin plus tadalafil as Medical Expulsive Therapy (MET) for lower ureteric stones.
Conditions: Lower Ureteric Stones, Medical Expulsive Therapy, Tadalafil, Silodosin.
Primary outcome: Stone expulsion rate.
Enrollment: 168 participants.
