Exclusion Criteria:
- History of postural hypotension, dizziness, poor hydration, vertigo, vaso-vagal reactions or any other signs and symptoms of orthostasis, which in the opinion of the investigator could be exacerbated by tamsulosin and result in putting the subject at risk of injury.

Subjects must be able and willing to abstain from beverages and foods containing alcohol 24 hours prior to the first dose of study medication and until the completion of the final PK sample during each period.
- A positive urine drug or alcohol screen result at screening and at Day -1. A minimum list of drugs that will be screened for include amphetamines, barbiturates, cocaine, opiates, cannabinoids, and benzodiazepines.
- Subjects must be able and willing to stop using of any tobacco or nicotine containing products 24 hours prior to each dose and for the duration of confinement. At the discretion of the Investigator, light smokers (smoking <=10 cigarettes a day) would be considered for the study inclusion.
- The subject has received an investigational product or participated in any other research trial within 6 months or 5 half-lives, or twice the duration of the biological effect of any drug (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of current study medication or anytime during the study period, exposure to more than 4 new chemical entities within 12 months prior to the first dosing day.
- Previous donation of blood or blood products in excess of 500 mL within a 90 day prior to the first dose of investigational products and the subject agrees not to donate blood during this study.
- History or presence of allergy, intolerance, contraindication or sensitivity to alpha blockers (e.g., tamsulosin), or 5 alpha reductase inhibitors (e.g., dutasteride) or drugs of these therapeutic classes, soya or peanuts, or any ingredients of commercially available combination of dutasteride 0.5 mg and tamsulosin HCL 0.4 mg, or a history of drug or other allergy (including true sulfonamide allergy) that, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicates your participation in the study.
