Xatral Information


Chemical ingredient: Alfuzosin


How does it work?

Alfuzosin hydrochloride belongs to a class of medicines called alpha blockers. It works by blocking alpha receptors which are found in the muscle in the prostate gland.

The prostate gland, which is found only in men, lies at the top of the tube connecting the bladder to the outside (urethra). The prostate gland often enlarges with advancing age (benign prostatic hyperplasia), pressing on the urethra and obstructing the flow of urine from the bladder. This can cause various urinary symptoms such as poor flow of urine.

Alfuzosin blocks alpha receptors in the muscle of the prostate gland, which causes the muscle in the prostate to relax. This allows urine to flow freely past the prostate and relieves the urinary symptoms.


What is it used for?

Enlarged prostate gland (benign prostatic hyperplasia)
