What Is Saw Palmetto?
Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens) is a prescription medication used to manage urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It works by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase and blocking androgen receptors in prostate tissue, which may help reduce prostate-related urinary symptoms. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, many men experience meaningful improvement in urinary flow and nighttime frequency.

Frequently asked questions
Saw Palmetto (Serenoa repens) is used to help manage urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), such as frequent urination, weak urine stream, and difficulty starting urination.

Saw Palmetto is generally well tolerated. Reported side effects are mild and may include stomach discomfort, nausea, headache, or dizziness. Taking it with food can help reduce gastrointestinal side effects. Serious adverse effects are uncommon but should be reported to your physician.
