INTERACTIONS: terazosin is metabolized by the liver and excreted in part by the kidney. Therefore, the doses of drugs may be necessary to lower in patients with renal or hepatic dysfunction.

By relaxing the smooth muscles and dilate the arteries, terazosin can cause a sharp drop in blood pressure, especially when the patient stands up (orthostatic hypotension). Orthostatic hypotension can cause the patient to pass on (syncope) on foot. orthostatic hypotension and syncope are usually associated with the first dose or the first days of treatment. Hypotension and syncope may also occur when doses of drugs are suddenly increased or another medication against hypertension is added. To reduce the risk of excessive hypotension and syncope, terazosin is initiated at low doses and given at bedtime lying down. The dose may be increased slowly as needed.
