Increased risk of orthostatic hypotension.
Avoid association.
If the association can not be avoided, use the smallest possible dose (4 mg per day) and monitor closely side effects.
In patients already being treated with this combination and tolerating it, if deemed appropriate, keep actual treatment and exercise close monitoring of adverse effects.
* Terazosin, doxazosin and prazosin to start in small dose and close monitoring. These alpha-blockers are not uroselective and may not be suitable for some patients.
Side effects of silodosin: retrograde ejaculation, dizziness, orthostactic hypotension, vertigo and headaches.

* Alternatives: These choices are more secure because of the flexibility of the dosage with these agents and their metabolic pathways.
Ref #3105 : In a pharmacokinetic study with diltiazem, a moderate inhibitor of CYP 3A4, the AUC of silodosine increased by 30%. In another study with ketoconazole, a strong inhibitor of CYP 3A4 and P-gp, the AUC of silodosine increased by 3.7 fold.
Silodosin monograph contraindicates combining this product with a strong CYP3A4 or P-gp inhibitors.
