Cardura

Cardura contains the active ingredient doxazosin, which is a type of medicine called an alpha-blocker. Doxazosin has two quite different uses. It works by blocking alpha receptors in certain areas of the body.

Alpha receptors are found on the muscle in the walls of blood vessels. When doxazosin blocks these receptors it causes the muscle in the blood vessel to relax and the blood vessel to widen. This lets the blood pass more easily through the blood vessels and hence reduces the pressure in the blood vessels. Cardura can therefore be used to treat high blood pressure.

Alpha receptors are also found on the muscle in the prostate gland. This gland is found only in men and lies at the top of the tube connecting the bladder to the outside. The prostate gland often enlarges with advancing age, pressing on the urethra and obstructing the flow of urine from the bladder. This can cause various urinary symptoms such as difficulty passing urine. By blocking the alpha receptors, doxazosin causes the muscle in the prostate gland to relax. This allows urine to flow freely past the prostate and relieves the urinary symptoms of this condition. Cardura can therefore be used to treat prostatic hyperplasia.

Dosage

Adults: Your doctor will adjust the dosage to fit your needs. Usual starting dosage - 1 mg taken once a day. To minimize potential for dizziness or weakening connected with Cardura which can take place between 2 and 6 hours after a dose, your doctor, will supervise your blood pressure during this period and afterwards.
After effects of a starting dosage are measured, your doctor can increase a daily dosage to 2 mg and then if it is necessary, to 4 mg, 8 mg, or, in people with a high blood pressure only, up to 16 mg. As increases in a dosage, potential for side effects such as dizziness, vertigo, levity, and weakening also increases.
Children: The safety and effectiveness of this drug in children have not been established.
