doxazosin and Pulmonary Hypertension

doxazosin has been researched along with Pulmonary Hypertension in 3 studies

Doxazosin: A prazosin-related compound that is a selective alpha-1-adrenergic blocker.
doxazosin : A member of the class of quinazolines that is quinazoline substituted by an amino group at position 4, methoxy groups at positions 6 and 7 and a piperazin-1-yl group at position 2 which in turn is substituted by a 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-2-ylcarbonyl group at position 4. An antihypertensive agent, it is used in the treatment of high blood pressure.

"It was shown recently that a thirty day doxazosin therapy, that was undertaken to prove alpha1-adrenergic hypothesis for pulmonary hypertension, resulted in a significant improvement of pulmonary hemodynamics in patients with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) due to COPD."9.12[One-year controlled therapy with doxazosin in patients with pulmonary hypertension due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].
