Biozocin-5 XL Tablet contains prazosin (5 mg). Here's how it works on your body:

• Alpha-1 Blocker: Prazosin acts as an alpha-1 blocker. It targets specific receptors in your body and blocks their activity. Essentially, it inhibits these receptors' ability to respond to certain signals.

• Vasodilation: By blocking these receptors, prazosin causes the smooth muscles in your blood vessels to relax. This action is called vasodilation - a fancy term for the widening of blood vessels. This widening improves blood flow and lowers blood pressure.

• Extended Release: Biozocin-5 XL Tablet has an extended-release formulation. That means it releases prazosin into your body slowly over a period of time. This steady and prolonged release ensures a consistent therapeutic effect.

• Store Biozocin-5 XL Tablet at room temperature.

• Keep away from direct sunlight, excessive heat and moisture.

• Always keep the medicine in its original packaging until ready for use.

• Ensure it is out of reach and sight of children.

• Check the expiry date on the pack and do not use the medicine post-expiration.

• To manage high blood pressure, reduce your daily salt intake. Too much salt can raise your blood pressure levels.

• Regular physical activity helps lower blood pressure. Aim for moderate exercise like brisk walking for at least 150 minutes a week. Please consult your doctor for an exercise plan tailored to your health condition.
