Xatral XL Tablet contains alfuzosin hydrochloride, an α1-receptor blocker designed to alleviate urinary obstruction symptoms associated with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). This extended-release formulation offers once-daily dosing for convenient management of BPH symptoms.

Uses

Xatral XL is primarily used for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Benefits

Relieves urinary obstruction symptoms of BPH
Improves urine flow rate
Reduces urinary frequency and urgency
Convenient once-daily dosing
Rapid onset of action with full effects in 2-3 weeks

How It Works

Alfuzosin works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the prostate and bladder neck through α1-adrenoceptor blockade. This relaxation improves urine flow and reduces BPH-related symptoms.

Dosage

The usual dose is one 10mg tablet taken once daily after the same meal each day. Effects may begin in 2-3 days, but full relief can take 2-3 weeks. Dose adjustment may be necessary for patients with hepatic impairment.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include headache, dizziness, respiratory infection, and back or limb pain. Rare but serious side effects can include orthostatic hypotension and priapism. Consult your doctor if you experience any concerning symptoms.

Warning

Patients should be cautious when standing up due to the risk of orthostatic hypotension. Priapism, though rare, requires immediate medical attention. Xatral XL should not be used in patients with severe hepatic insufficiency.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Xatral XL is not indicated for use in women. It’s primarily prescribed for men with BPH.

Interaction

May interact with other alpha-blockers or antihypertensive medications
Caution advised when used with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors
Potential interaction with PDE5 inhibitors used for erectile dysfunction
Inform your doctor of all medications you’re taking

Important Information

Take Xatral XL with food at the same time each day for consistent absorption. Report any symptoms of orthostatic hypotension to your doctor. Regular follow-ups are important to monitor the effectiveness of treatment and any potential side effects. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but never take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
