About amonth ago I switched from 0.4 mg Flomax to 2.0 mg. Terazosin. There were no side reactions that I am aware of and my urinary function has not changed, as far as I can tell.

Question/Comment:
Although neither mentioned as side effect, I draw distinction between dizziness and loss of balance.
I take 3mg of Hytrin daily at night and recently in the morning experience significant loss of balance when moving about. There is no sensation of dizziness, but definite unsteadiness. Long-lasting but reduced severity.
I am a young 89 yr old male with AFib in addition to various aliments.
Anyone else?

In my case, TERAZOSIN serves a dual purpose-it lowers my blood pressure while shrinking my prostate& does both effectively.

I am 87 and doing well with the Hytrin. I do have a pacemaker, but no special problems.
A year ago my PSA did jump up and I went on that Johns Hopkins routine and in 2 mo.
it had come down some and in 4 months was back to where it had been for years. About 6-8
months ago I started on Tai Chi and this has helped the activities and ambulation

Question/Comment:
It has solved my blood pressure problems since I began taking it in 1993. I also have the positive effects on my prostate and experience no prostrate problems whatsoever. The drowsiness that I experience is very muld and I am very satisfied with the overall use of the drug. There also seems to be no effects combined with the other medications that I take.
