Prazonol 2.5 Xl Tablet 10 contains prazosin (2.5 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Alpha-adrenergic receptor blockade: Prazosin blocks certain receptors called alpha-1 adrenergic receptors found in blood vessels and the prostate gland. This blocking action prevents the hormone noradrenaline from tightening these tissues.

• Blood vessel relaxation: By blocking alpha-1 receptors in blood vessel walls, prazosin causes the blood vessels to widen and relax. This leads to improved blood flow and lower blood pressure.

• Prostate muscle relaxation: In the prostate gland, prazosin relaxes the smooth muscle tissue. This helps reduce the pressure on the urethra (the tube that carries urine out of the body), making it easier to pass urine.

• Reduced urinary symptoms: By relaxing the muscles at the bladder neck and prostate, prazosin helps improve urine flow and reduces symptoms like frequent nighttime urination.
