When used to treat HYPERTENSION or BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA (BPH)
Please read this leaflet before you start taking terazosin capsules.
Also, read it each time you get a new
prescription. This is a summary and should NOT take the place of a
full discussion with your doctor who
has additional information about terazosin capsules. You and your
doctor should discuss terazosin
capsules and your condition before you start taking it and at your
regular check-ups.
Terazosin capsules are used to treat high blood pressure
(hypertension). Terazosin capsules are also used
to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men. This leaflet
describes terazosin capsules as a treatment
for hypertension or BPH.
What is hypertension (high blood pressure)?
Blood pressure is the tension of the blood within the blood vessels.
If blood is pumped too forcefully, or if
the blood vessels are too narrow, the pressure of the blood against
the walls of the vessels rises.
If high blood pressure is not treated, over time, the increased
pressure can damage blood vessels or it can
cause the heart to work too hard and may decrease the flow of blood to
the heart, brain, and kidneys. As a
result, these organs may become damaged and not function correctly. If
high blood pressure is controlled,
this damage is less likely to happen.
Treatment options for hypertension
Non-drug treatments are sometimes effective in controlling mild
hypertension. The most important
lifestyle changes to lower blood pressure are to lose weight, reduce
salt, fat, and alcohol in the diet, quit
smoking, and exercise regularly. However, many hypertensive patients
require one or more ongoing
medications to control their blood pressure. There are different kinds
of medications used to treat
hypertension. Your doctor has prescribed terazosin capsules for you.

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 neck. The reduction in
