Narrative
06 December 2017
Surrey & North West Sussex Area Prescribing Committee (formerly Prescribing Clinical Network)
Where an alpha blocker is indicated, the PCN recommend one of the following as a 1st-line treatment option
- Tamsulosin (modified release) – GREEN (NOTE - prescribe as generic capsules)
- Doxazosin (immediate release) – GREEN (NOTE - XL / modified release preparations are considered BLACK)
Alfuzosin is more costly and is therefore not recommended as a 1st-line option. (NOTE - prescribe generically)
Terazosin is reserved for patients with hepatic or renal failure since no dose adjustment is required in these patient groups
