Figure 1. Medication use four months after laser and TURP procedures.

Figure 1

TURP patients were more likely to be off medication after surgery than were laser patients regardless of medication use prior to surgery. Patients requiring new medication after surgery were split between use of alpha-blocker medication and antispasmodics. Patients continuing medication after surgery were commonly using alpha-blocker medications. Antispasmodic use was higher in laser treated patients and 5-alpha reductase inhibitor use was higher in TURP treated patients.
