Ábendingar:

Terazosin capsules are indicated for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). There is a rapid response, with approximately 70% of patients experiencing an increase in urinary flow and improvement in symptoms of BPH when treated with terazosin capsules. The long-term effects of terazosin capsules on the incidence of surgery, acute urinary obstruction or other complications of BPH are yet to be determined. Terazosin capsules are also indicated for the treatment of hypertension. Terazosin capsules can be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents such as diuretics or beta-adrenergic blocking agents. Terazosin capsules are contraindicated in patients known to be hypersensitive to terazosin hydrochloride.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACODYNAMICS
A. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
The symptoms associated with BPH are related to bladder outlet
obstruction, which is
comprised of two underlying components: a static component and a
dynamic
component. The static component is a consequence of an increase in
prostate size.
Over time, the prostate will continue to enlarge. However, clinical
studies have
demonstrated that the size of the prostate does not correlate with the
severity of BPH
symptoms or the degree of urinary obstruction. The dynamic component
is a function
of an increase in smooth muscle tone in the prostate and bladder neck,
leading to

constriction of the bladder outlet. Smooth muscle tone is mediated by
sympathetic
nervous stimulation of alpha-1 adrenoceptors, which are abundant in
the prostate,
prostatic capsule and bladder
