Cardura Information

Cardura (Doxazosin) is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, a prevalent condition in older men, which involves a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland, causing primarily urinating difficulties. It is typically used to curtail the symptoms of this condition, although it does not actually shrink the prostate itself. As an alpha-1 adrenergic antagonist, it blocks alpha-1 adrenergic receptors on the smooth muscle cells of the prostate and the neck of the bladder, causing relaxation. This subsequently leads to a reduction in the urinary symptoms associated with this condition, such as a weak stream, dribbling, difficulty starting urination, or the need to go often or urgently. You may notice an improvement in symptoms within a week or two.

Doxazosin is also used as one of the second-line medications in the treatment of systemic hypertension (high blood pressure). It is typically used as an add-on therapy when other first-line blood pressure medications (like ACE inhibitors, calcium channel blockers, or diuretics) haven't worked well enough on their own. Its effect on alpha-1 adrenergic receptors relaxes blood vessels, decreasing total peripheral resistance and making it easier for blood to flow through the body, which, in turn, lowers blood pressure. This medication is available in standard and extended-release tablet forms. However, it is essential to note that the extended-release form should not be used for treating hypertension.
