[http://medicine-no-prescription.com/item/cardura.html Cardura] - Cardura is used for treating high blood pressure and treating signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
<h3>Drug name</h3>
Cardura (Doxazosin)
<h3>Drug Uses</h3>
Cardura is used for treating high blood pressure and treating signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
<h3>How Taken</h3>
Use Cardura as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
Take Cardura by mouth with or without food.
Cardura may cause a sudden drop in blood pressure after the very first dose. Take your first dose at bedtime. If you get up during the night, sit up slowly, then stand slowly.
