Description
Hytrin 2 mg is a prescription medicine for patients with high blood pressure or hypertension. If blood is pumped forcefully, or if the blood vessels are too narrow, the blood pressure against the walls of the arteries rises. If the condition is left untreated, the increased blood pressure can damage blood vessels or increase the heart’s workload and may decrease the blood flow to the heart, brain, and kidneys. In some cases, these organs may become damaged and not function properly. If high pressure is controlled, the chances of organ damage reduce. An antihypertensive drug is often recommended to lower blood pressure in combination with lifestyle changes such as eating healthy, exercising regularly, limiting alcohol intake, and quitting smoking. Hytrin contains the active ingredient Terazosin, which causes blood vessels to relax so that blood passes through them more easily. This helps to reduce blood pressure.
Hytrin can also treat benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH in men. BPH is an enlargement of the prostate gland. The symptoms appear due to an increase in the tightness of muscles in the prostate. If the muscles inside the prostate tighten, ultimately causing squeezing of the urethra and slowing the flow of urine, This can bring the following symptoms:
— A weak or interrupted stream when urinating
— A feeling of being able to empty the bladder
— A feeling of delay when you begin to urinate
— An urge to urinate often, especially at night
Hytrin 2 mg relaxes the tight muscles in the prostate and at the opening of the bladder. This may increase the urine flow and decrease the symptoms you are having. Terazosin helps relieve the symptoms of BPH. It does not change the size of the prostate gland, which may continue to grow. However, large prostate does not always cause more or worse symptoms.
