How To Use Cardura
CARDURA: Take CARDURA exactly as prescribed. Try to take it at the same time each day. Take the first dose at bedtime to minimize the chances of getting dizzy or fainting.

Some conditions may become worse when the drug is abruptly stopped. Your dose may need to be gradually decreased.
Cardura Uses
CARDURA relaxes and dilates (expands) blood vessels resulting in lowered blood pressure. It is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure).
Other Uses Of Cardura
CARDURA may also be used for treating heart failure. CARDURA can also be used in males for prostate enlargement symptoms such as urinary hesitancy and/or urgency.
Cardura Precautions
Tell your doctor your medical history, especially of: liver or kidney disease, allergies (especially to other quinazolines such as prazosin). To avoid dizziness or fainting, get up slowly from a lying or seated position; especially when you first start using CARDURA or if your doctor changes your dosing. Limit your intake of alcohol and avoid getting overheated because they may increase the dizziness and drowsiness effects of CARDURA. Use caution performing tasks requiring alertness such as driving or using machinery. CARDURA should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Consult with your doctor before breast-feeding.
