Cardura XL contains the active ingredient doxazosin. It is a prescription medication used to treat the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
BPH is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland.
An enlarged prostate can press on the urethra and make it harder to urinate.
Cardura XL can help improve symptoms such as:
Cardura XL belongs to a group of medications called alpha-1 blockers.
It works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck.
This makes it easier for urine to flow and can improve urinary symptoms caused by BPH.
Cardura XL is not approved for treating high blood pressure.
Although doxazosin can lower blood pressure, the extended-release Cardura XL formulation is specifically indicated for the signs and symptoms of BPH.
Take Cardura XL exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
It is usually taken once daily with breakfast.
Try to take it at the same time each day.
Swallow the tablet whole with water.
Do not crush, chew, or cut Cardura XL tablets. Doing so can affect how the medication is released and may increase the risk of side effects.
The usual starting dose is 4 mg once daily.
Depending on how well your symptoms improve and how you tolerate the medication, your healthcare provider may increase the dose to 8 mg once daily.
Do not change your dose on your own.
Take Cardura XL every day to get the most benefit.
It may take some time before you notice a clear improvement in urinary symptoms.
If you miss Cardura XL for several days, contact your healthcare provider before restarting it.
You may need to restart treatment carefully to reduce the risk of dizziness, fainting, or a sudden drop in blood pressure.
If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next dose.
If your next dose is close, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.
Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
Cardura XL (Doxazosin) is available in the following forms and strength:
Cardura XL can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, especially when you stand up.
This may cause:
The risk may be higher when you first start treatment or after a dose increase.
Stand up slowly from a sitting or lying position.
Cardura XL can sometimes cause palpitations, a fast or irregular heartbeat, or chest discomfort.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have heart disease or another cardiovascular condition.
Seek medical attention if you develop severe chest pain, fainting, or a new or worsening irregular heartbeat.
Doxazosin is processed by the liver.
If you have liver disease, your healthcare provider may monitor you more closely.
Cardura XL should be used cautiously in people with liver impairment.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer can cause similar urinary symptoms.
Cardura XL improves symptoms caused by BPH, but it does not treat prostate cancer.
Your healthcare provider may perform tests to check for prostate cancer before or during treatment.
Tell your eye surgeon if you take or have previously taken Cardura XL.
Alpha-blockers such as doxazosin can cause a complication during cataract surgery called intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS).
Your surgeon may need to take extra precautions during the procedure.
Cardura XL may cause dizziness or tiredness, especially when treatment begins.
Avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how the medication affects you.
Some people may experience nervousness, anxiety, or mood changes while taking doxazosin.
Tell your healthcare provider if you notice unusual or persistent changes in your mood or behaviour.
Do not take Cardura XL if you are allergic to doxazosin, related quinazoline medications, or any ingredient in the tablet.
Seek emergency medical attention if you develop swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, severe rash, or trouble breathing.
Cardura XL is specifically used for BPH, so pregnancy and breastfeeding are generally not relevant to its usual use.
If doxazosin is being considered for another reason, discuss pregnancy or breastfeeding with your healthcare provider before treatment.
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose. If you have missed Cardura XL for several days, contact your healthcare provider before restarting it.
Taking too much Cardura XL can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Symptoms may include severe dizziness, weakness, lightheadedness, or fainting. Seek immediate medical attention if an overdose is suspected.
Yes, sexual side effects can occur, although they are not common. Some people may experience problems such as difficulty getting or maintaining an erection. Tell your healthcare provider if you notice sexual side effects that are bothersome or persistent.
Cardura XL does not usually provide immediate relief. Some people with BPH may begin to notice an improvement in urinary symptoms within 1 to 2 weeks. It may take longer to experience the full benefit. Continue taking Cardura XL every day as prescribed, even if improvement is gradual.
