CARDURA XL 4MG X 28 TABS

Cardura XL 4mg – Extended-Release Tablets for Hypertension & BPH (28 Tablets)

**Cardura XL 4mg** contains **Doxazosin mesylate**, an alpha-1 adrenergic blocker used to treat **high blood pressure (hypertension)** and the **urinary symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)**.
