Doxaprost is an orally active bronchodilator. Doxaprost was 73 and 32 times more potent that (+/-) 11-deoxy PGE1 by the aerosol and i.v. routes, respectively. Doxaprost also demonstrated a longer duration of effect. Doxaprost is indicated for the treatment of symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia and hypertension. Common side effects are: dizziness, weakness and rarely fainting, especially at the beginning of the medication use. Doxaprost potentiates the action of lowering the blood pressure of other alpha-blockers and anti-hypertensives.

Sample Use Guides

Benign prostatic hyperplasia: The starting dose is 1 mg (2 mg half-tablet) given as a single daily dose.The dose may be increased after one or two weeks of treatment to 2 mg, and thus at similar intervals to 4 mg and 8 mg, which is the maximum recommended dose. The usual recommended dose range is 2 to 4 mg daily. Hypertension: The total dose of doxazosin ranges from 1 to 16 mg daily. An initial dose of 1 mg (2 mg tablet) given as a single daily dose for one to two weeks is recommended. The usual recommended dose range is 2 to 4 mg daily.
