Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION
Terazosin hydrochloride is a quinazoline derivative and a competitive and orally active ¦Á1-adrenoceptor antagonist. Terazosin hydrochloride works by relaxing blood vessels and the opening of the bladder. Terazosin hydrochloride has the potential for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and high blood pressure treatment[1][2][3].

DESCRIPTION
Terazosin hydrochloride dihydrate is a quinazoline derivative and a competitive and orally active ¦Á1-adrenoceptor antagonist. Terazosin hydrochloride dihydrate works by relaxing blood vessels and the opening of the bladder. Terazosin hydrochloride dihydrate has the potential for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and high blood pressure treatment[1][2][3].
DESCRIPTION
Terazosin hydrochloride dihydrate (Heitrin dihydrate) is a selective ??1-adrenoceptor antagonist, used for treatment of symptoms of an enlarged prostate (BPH).
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Terazosin is a quinazoline derivative alpha-1-selective adrenergic blocker[FDA Label][A176831,A176837].
ABSORPTION
Approximately 90%[A176831].
ROE
Approximately 10% of the oral dose is excreted unchanged in the urine and approximately 20% is excreted in the feces[FDA Label][A176831]. 40% of the total dose is eliminated in urine and 60% of the total dose is eliminated in the feces[FDA Label][A176831].
INDICATION
Terazosin is indicated for use in treating symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia and hypertension[FDA Label].
TOXICITY
In the event of an overdose, patients may experience hypotension[FDA Label]. Blood pressure and heart rate should be controlled by having the patient lie down or by treating with volume expanders or if necessary vasopressors[FDA Label]. Patients should be monitored for renal function[FDA Label]. Because terazosin is highly protein bound, dialysis is unlikely to provide benefit to overdosing patients[FDA Label].; ; The oral LD50 in mice is 5500mg/kg[MSDS].
HALF-LIFE
Terazosin has a mean half life 12 hours though this can be as high as 14 hours in patients over 70 years and as low as 11.4 hours in patients 20 to 39 years old[FDA Label][A176831].
METABOLISM
The majority of terazosin is hepatically metabolized[A176831]. The metabolites recovered include 6-O-demethyl terazosin, 7-O-methyl terazosin, a piperozine derivative, and a diamine derivative[A176831].
DESCRIPTION
Postsynaptic α1-adrenoceptor inhibitor.
Marketed formulations may contain terazosin hydrochloride (PubChem CID 44383). (GtoPdb)

MOA
Terazosin is selective for alpha-1-adrenoceptors but not their individual subtypes[A5212,A5457]. Inhibition of these alpha-1-adrenoceptors results in relaxation of smooth muscle in blood vessels and the prostate, lowering blood pressure and improving urinary flow[A176831,A176837,A5212,A5457]. Smooth muscle cells accounts for roughly 40% of the volume of the prostate and so their relaxation reduces pressure on the urethra[A176837].; ; It has also been shown that catecholamines induce factors responsible for mitogenesis and alpha-1-adrenergic receptor blockers inhibit this effect[A176837].; ; A final long term mechanism of terazosin and other alpha-1-adrenergic receptor blockers is the induction of apoptosis of prostate cells[A176837]. Treatment with terazosin enhances the expression of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta1), which upregulates p27kip1, and the caspase cascade[A176837,A176840].

DESCRIPTION
Terazosin is a quinazoline derivative alpha-1-selective adrenergic blocking agent indicated for benign prostatic hyperplasia and hypertension. Terazosin blocks adrenaline's action on alpha-1 adrenergic receptors, causing relaxation of smooth muscle in blood vessels and the prostate.
(Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION
Terazosin hydrochloride (Hytrin) , a selective alpha1-antagonist, can treat the benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It also can lower blood pressure, so it is a drug of choice for patients with prostate enlargement and hypertension. It works on the smooth muscle of the bladder and the blood vessel walls by blocking the function of adrenaline.
