Used For:

Alfuzosin is an alpha-blocker medication primarily used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition where the prostate gland enlarges, causing difficulty in urination. It works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate and reducing symptoms like frequent urination, weak stream, and difficulty starting or stopping urination.

Side Effects:

Common side effects include dizziness, headache, fatigue, and nasal congestion. Some individuals may also experience low blood pressure, especially when standing up quickly (orthostatic hypotension), which can lead to fainting. Other side effects may include dry mouth, nausea, or abdominal pain. Rare but serious side effects include severe allergic reactions, chest pain, or a prolonged erection (priapism), which requires immediate medical attention.

Precautions:

Alfuzosin should be used with caution in individuals with heart disease, liver problems, or low blood pressure. It can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, especially when getting up from a sitting or lying position, so it’s advised to stand up slowly. It should not be used in combination with other alpha-blockers or certain medications that lower blood pressure unless directed by a healthcare provider. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use, although alfuzosin is generally not recommended during pregnancy
