Hytrin 1mg Tablets (3X10S) is a high-quality pharmaceutical product used for treating high blood pressure and the symptoms of an enlarged prostate, available for home delivery at PakMeds.

Hytrin 1mg Tablets Ingredients and Usage

Hytrin 1mg Tablets contain Terazosin Hydrochloride, a medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). In Pakistan, the 1mg dose is typically the starting dose used to initiate treatment. For BPH, it helps relieve urinary symptoms such as a weak stream, frequent urination, and the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck.

For hypertension, it helps lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications. PakMeds provides Hytrin to help patients manage these chronic conditions under medical supervision.

How Does Hytrin 1mg Tablets Work?

Terazosin is an alpha-1-adrenergic receptor blocker. It works by blocking the action of norepinephrine on the smooth muscles of the blood vessels and the prostate gland. When these muscles relax, blood vessels dilate, which lowers blood pressure. In the prostate gland, this relaxation reduces the resistance to the flow of urine out of the bladder, making it much easier to urinate.

The 1mg “starter” dose is crucial for minimizing the risk of “first-dose effect,” which can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when beginning therapy.

Hytrin 1mg Tablets Side Effects

The most common side effect is dizziness or lightheadedness, particularly when standing up from a sitting or lying position (orthostatic hypotension). This is most common after the very first dose or when the dose is increased. Other side effects may include headache, tiredness, and nasal congestion.

In rare cases, some men may experience a prolonged, painful erection (priapism). PakMeds recommends taking the first dose at bedtime to minimize the risk of fainting or falls due to dizziness.

• Do not drive or operate machinery for 24 hours after your first dose.
