Uroxatral (generic: alfuzosin) is a prescription medication used to treat men with symptoms of an enlarged prostate, known medically as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).  Uroxatral belongs to a group of drugs called alpha blockers, which help the prostate and bladder muscles to relax, allowing urine to flow more easily.

This medication comes in an extended-release tablet and is taken once a day, after the same meal each day. Swallow Uroxatral tablets whole.

Common side effects of Uroxatral include dizziness, headache, and tiredness.  Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how Uroxatral will affect you.
