Setting: Department of Urology and Renal Transplant, Allied Hospital I/ Faisalabad Medical University, Faisalabad. Period: 1st June 2024 to 30th November 2024. Methods: Total number of 60 patients who underwent ureteroscopy and DJ stenting for ureteric stones were selected, and divided into 2 groups. Group A (administered with tamsulosin) and Group B (with placebo). IPSS score calculated at 21th day after procedure. Scores of both groups were compared. Results: Patient of group A who were given tamsulosin had less lower urinary tract symptoms as compared to patient who received placebo drug.
