This medication relaxes the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier for men with an enlarged prostate (BPH) to urinate. It works by blocking alpha receptors, which reduces the tension in the smooth muscle of the urinary tract. Dizziness upon standing is a common side effect, especially when first starting treatment.
