Glossary Terazosin

medication that relaxes blood vessel and prostate muscles

Terazosin is a medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure and symptoms of an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia). It works by relaxing the muscles in the blood vessels and the prostate, making it easier for blood to flow and for urine to pass.
