FAQs about Cardura
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose of Cardura, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose. This information is provided in the Patient Counseling Information section of the label.
Can I stop taking Cardura suddenly?
It is not recommended to stop taking Cardura suddenly without consulting your prescriber, as this may lead to a worsening of your condition. Your prescriber will guide you on how to safely discontinue the medication if necessary. This warning is included in the Warnings and Precautions section of the label.
Can I take Cardura while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The use of Cardura during pregnancy should be discussed with your prescriber, as the effects on an unborn baby are not fully known. It is also advised to consult your healthcare provider if you are breastfeeding, as it is not clear if doxazosin passes into breast milk. This information is found in the Use in Specific Populations section of the label.
How should I store Cardura?
Cardura should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep the medication in its original container and out of reach of children. This storage information is provided in the Storage section of the label.
