Manufactured By: Pifzer

Used For:

  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Cardura (Doxazosin) is an alpha-blocker that works by relaxing the blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow, thereby lowering blood pressure.
  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): In men with enlarged prostates, Cardura helps relax the muscles in the bladder and prostate, making it easier to urinate and relieving symptoms of BPH, such as difficulty starting urine flow and frequent urination.

    • Weight gain
    • Swelling in the hands or feet (edema)
  • Serious Side Effects (Seek medical attention if they occur):

    • Chest pain
    • Shortness of breath
    • Irregular heartbeat
    • Priapism (prolonged or painful erection in men)

Precautions:

  • Low Blood Pressure: Cardura can cause a significant drop in blood pressure, especially after the first dose or when increasing the dosage. Avoid activities requiring alertness (e.g., driving) until you know how the medication affects you.
  • Interactions: It can interact with other blood pressure medications, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil, tadalafil), and certain antibiotics or antifungals, causing a potentially dangerous drop in blood pressure.
