Terazosin is used for:
Treating high blood pressure and treating signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Terazosin is an alpha-blocker. It works by relaxing muscles in the blood vessels, resulting in lowering of blood pressure. In BPH, alpha-blockers work by relaxing muscles around the urethra (tube that drains urine from the bladder), which improves urinary symptoms.
Do NOT use Terazosin if:
- you are allergic to any ingredient in Terazosin or to similar medicines (eg, prazosin)
Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
How to use Terazosin :
Use Terazosin as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
- An extra patient leaflet is available with Terazosin . Talk to your pharmacist if you have questions about this information.
- If you miss a dose of Terazosin , take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once. If more than one dose is missed, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Terazosin .
