Renopress-XL-5 Tablet is used to lower high blood pressure and to relieve the urinary symptoms of an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia). It is a single-ingredient medicine containing prazosin in an extended-release form, and belongs to a class of medicines called alpha-blockers.
This medicine relaxes the blood vessels and the muscle around the prostate and bladder neck, and its extended-release form gives a steady effect through the day. Swallow the tablet whole without crushing it. Take the first dose at bedtime, and rise slowly from sitting or lying down, as it can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure at first. Use the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor.
Staying well hydrated and avoiding prolonged standing or hot baths in the early days of treatment can help reduce dizziness alongside this medicine.
Tell your doctor about any low blood pressure, heart problems or kidney disease before starting this medicine, and about any other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. Speak to your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding. Report fainting, a marked drop in blood pressure on standing, or unusual mood changes, and report any side effects that persist or become serious. Do not stop taking this medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
