On this podcast episode, I discuss alfuzosin pharmacology, adverse effects, drug interactions, and much more! Alfuzosin is an alpha blocker used to help relieve the symptoms of BPH. Low blood pressure is a possible adverse effect of alfuzosin and is more likely when combined with PDE-5 inhibitors like sildenafil. CYP3A4 is an important enzyme in the metabolism of alfuzosin. Inhibitors of CYP3A4 can raise concentrations and increase the chance of alfuzosin toxicity.
