Active Ingredients: Doxazosin mesilate
Therapeutic actions: Cardura XL modified release tablets contain the active ingredient doxazosin, which is a type of medicine called an alpha-blocker. (NB. Doxazosin is also available without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.) Doxazosin has two quite different uses. It works by blocking alpha receptors in certain areas of the body.
Alpha receptors are found on the muscle in the walls of blood vessels. When doxazosin blocks these receptors it causes the muscle in the blood vessel to relax and the blood vessel to widen. This lets the blood pass more easily through the blood vessels and hence reduces the pressure in the blood vessels. Doxazosin can therefore be used to treat high blood pressure.
Alpha receptors are also found on the muscle in the prostate gland. This gland is found only in men and lies at the top of the tube connecting the bladder to the outside (urethra). The prostate gland often enlarges with advancing age (benign prostatic hyperplasia), pressing on the urethra and obstructing the flow of urine from the bladder. This can cause various urinary symptoms such as difficulty passing urine. By blocking the alpha receptors, doxazosin causes the muscle in the prostate gland to relax. This allows urine to flow freely past the prostate and relieves the urinary symptoms of this condition.
Cardura XL tablets are modified release tablets. They are designed to release the doxazosin slowly, thus producing a steady blood level of the medicine throughout the day. The tablets must be swallowed whole with a drink and not broken, crushed or chewed, as this would damage the modified release action.
