Information
Besavar XL is a brand name for the medication alfuzosin, which belongs to a class of drugs known as alpha-blockers. It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition commonly referred to as an enlarged prostate in adult men. Besavar XL works by relaxing the muscles in the bladder neck and prostate, improving urine flow and reducing the symptoms of BPH, such as difficulty in starting urination, weak stream, and the need to urinate frequently or urgently. This medication is formulated in an extended-release tablet, allowing for once-daily dosing to maintain a steady level of medication in the body for effective symptom management. As with any medication, it is important to follow the healthcare provider's instructions when taking Besavar XL to ensure its efficacy and minimize potential side effects.
