Experiences with

Prazosin

I sometimes have to get up in the wee hours of the morning and take another prazosin because my nightmares are so bad. Help. TIA.

Patients receiving prazosin had a 3.9 times lower relative risk of biochemical relapse compared to control. Although not statistically significant, tamsulosin and prazosin extended recurrence free survival by 13.15 and 9.21 months respectively.

PGK1 and Terazosin has been discussed before on this site. A new study (link below) published on Aug 21st, 2024 The study, published Aug. 21 in Science Advances, presented evidence that PGK1 is a “rate-limiting” enzyme in energy production in the output-signaling branches, or axons, of the dopamine

Very interesting. I have not heard of terazosin, doxazosin, and alfuzosin Does anyone have knowledge or experience with them? How do their side effects compare? What are their on label and off label uses? Prostate Drugs May Reduce Risk of Dementia With Lewy Bodies A recent study highlights

Could it be new bp med minipress (prazosin)? I guess it is always possible that something that didn't use to bother me now does?

Supplements, medication, procedures Can someone tell me what supplements should be used with Parkinsons Among the various therapies that have shown at least some effect in the animal and/or human model are Carbadopa/Levadopa Actylcholine Actigal/Ursolic acid Adderil (amphetamine) Alcohol Alpha

Hi! Does anyone out there use terazosin for its imapct on the progression of parkinson's disease?

I use Prazosin for possible anti-PCa effects. Alas, all is not gold that glitters. Prazosin is prescribed for LUTS and high blood pressure, with an effect that tends to lower diastolic more than systolic ( upper number) blood pressure.

Recurrence free survival was also significantly higher in the prazosin group. This remained after multivariable analysis (HR: 0.09, 95% CI: 0.04–0.26, p < 0.001). Patients receiving prazosin had a 3.9 times lower relative risk of biochemical relapse compared to control." 

" promotes the apoptosis of U251 and U87 cells via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway" involved in prostate cancer as well, as I recall. I am currently taking this drug. https://www.spandidos-publications.com/10.3892/etm.2020.8772

Any one else buying it from India?

Here is a partial list of medication, supplements for other therapies used in Parkinsons What do you believe are the most beneficial/essential to treating Parkinsons and/or mitochondrial damage Which way should I go? Most bang for your bucks Carbadopa/Levadopa  L-5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) Actylcholine

What was left unanswered in the thread on Prazosin, reported on earlier by Patrick/Pjoshea 13, is the dosage and duration of Prazosin use to aim for if one wants to try this drug.

Of couse there can be confounders, but at the least, it is not obvious that users of tamsulosin have worse health behavior etc than users of prazosin.

BruceSF sent me this message and it looks like a game changer for those trying to prevent recurrence, to me: I’ve been taking Prazosin for 4 years since my radiation therapy, it is a drug that helps urinary flow (same family - alpha blocker - as Flomax) and lowers blood pressure and still have an

Has anyone else had vertigo as a side effect from terazosin? This side effect appeared when I increased the dose from 1 mg to 2 mg. I was at 1 mg for over a year.

"The answer to the question in the title of this post is “Yes, drug repurposing does work” and in this short blog we shall discuss examples of its utility in Parkinson’s. But first it would be wise to explain the drug development process and why drug repurposing is an exciting area of research that is

I took minipress last night for the first time for my night terrors. I had extreme side effects with my blood pressure dropping too low. It was horrible. Does anyone know if it'll pass once I'm adjusted to it? I'm scared to take it tonight.
