Abstract
The sexuality and the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with alfuzosin (SAMBA)
trial evaluated the effect of alfuzosin on sexual function in men treated for BPH using two sexual
function scales: male sexual health questionnaire (MSHQ) and international index of erectile
function (IIEF-15). A total of 148 patients with BPH were treated with alfuzosin for 24 weeks. The
patients were followed at baseline, 4, 12 and 24 weeks after medication with alfuzosin. MSHQ was
collected at every visit, whereas Qmax, IPSS and IIEF-15 were checked at baseline and end point. At
the end point, Qmax (þ4.7ml s 1, Po0.01) and IPSS ( 5.3, Po0.01) had improved significantly.
Alfuzosin also significantly improved the total MSHQ (19.2%, 79.1–94.3, Po0.01) and the MSHQ
ejaculatory scores (26.0%, 22.3–28.1, P¼o0.01) versus baseline. Alfuzosin for the treatment of
patients with BPH is effective in improving sexual function, as well as lower urinary tract symptoms
(LUTSs) and quality of life, and is well tolerated.
