Overview
UROXATRAL helps treat the signs and symptoms of BPH
There is medicine that can help you can get relief for BPH symptoms.
UROXATRAL is an alpha-blocker that you can take once a day and offers proven symptomatic relief for BPH patients—even those with larger prostates. It improves urine flow by relaxing the smooth muscle located at the bladder neck and around the prostate.
If the bladder is permanently damaged, medical treatment for BPH may be ineffective.
Indication
Uroxatral® (alfuzosin HCl 10 mg extended-release tablets) is an alpha1-blocker
for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of BPH.
Important Safety Information
Do not take UROXATRAL if you have liver problems or if you are taking antifungal
drugs like ketoconazole or itraconazole, or HIV drugs like ritonavir.
UROXATRAL can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, especially when starting treatment.
This may lead to fainting, dizziness, and lightheadedness. Do not drive, operate
machinery, or do any dangerous activity until you know how UROXATRAL will affect
you. This is especially important if you already have a problem with low blood pressure
or take medicines to treat high blood pressure. There may be an increased risk of
low blood pressure and fainting when taking UROXATRAL in combination with blood
pressure medication or nitrates, or erectile dysfunction medication.
If considering cataract surgery (clouding of the eyes), tell your eye surgeon that
you are currently taking UROXATRAL or have previously been treated with an alpha-blocker.
Before taking UROXATRAL, tell your doctor if you have kidney problems.
Also, tell your doctor if you or any family member(s) have or take medications for
a rare heart condition known as congenital prolongation of the QT interval.
BPH and prostate cancer can cause the same symptoms. However, UROXATRAL is not a
treatment for prostate cancer.
The most common side effects with UROXATRAL are dizziness, upper respiratory tract
infection, headache, and tiredness.
