title: [Alpha-1 inhibition and blood pressure regulation].
abstract: The Alpress LP osmotic tablet enables progressive and prolonged release of prazosin into the digestive tract over a 16 hour period. This leads to the maintenance of stable plasma concentrations of the drug and the absence of high plasma peaks during the absorption of prazosin. The antihypertensive effect prazosin persists throughout the day and night, ensuring effective blood pressure regulation and treatment is well tolerated by patients.
