Teva Terazosin 2mg Tablets x28
Teva Terazosin 2mg is a prescription medication primarily used to manage symptoms of an enlarged prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH) and to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It belongs to a group of medicines called alpha-1 adrenergic blockers.
How it Works
Terazosin works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the prostate gland and the opening of the bladder. This helps to improve urinary flow and reduce symptoms such as difficulty starting urination or the need to urinate frequently. For hypertension, it works by relaxing the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily through the body, which helps lower blood pressure.
What it Treats
- Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): Helps relieve urinary symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate.
- Hypertension: Used alone or in combination with other medications to control high blood pressure.
How to Use
This medication should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is often recommended to take the first dose at bedtime to minimize the risk of dizziness or fainting, which can occur as your body adjusts to the medicine.
