Glossary Doxazosin

medication that relaxes blood vessels and prostate muscles

Doxazosin, also known by the brand name Cardura, is a medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It works by relaxing blood vessels and the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate and lowering blood pressure.
