Alfuzosin, like other alpha adrenergic antagonists, has been associated with priapism (persistent painful penile erection unrelated to sexual activity). Because this condition can lead to permanent impotence if not properly treated, patients should be advised about the seriousness of the condition (See Section 4.8 Undesirable Effects).

Section 4.4 - Special warnings and precautions for use:

Care should be taken when alfuzosin is administered to patients who have had a pronounced hypotensive response to another alpha1-blocker. Blood pressure should be monitored regularly, especially at the beginning of treatment.

 

In patients with coronary insufficiency, specific therapy for coronary insufficiency should be continued. If angina pectoris reappears or worsens alfuzosin should be discontinued.

 

As with all alpha1-receptor blockers, alfuzosin should be used with caution in patients with acute cardiac failure.

 

Patients with congenital QTc prolongation, with a known history of acquired QTc prolongation or who are taking drugs known to increase the QTc interval should be evaluated before and during the administration of alfuzosin.

 

Alfuzosin 10 mg prolonged release tablets contain hydrogenated castor oil which may cause stomach upset and diarrhoea.

 

As there are no clinical safety data available in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance < 30ml/min), alfuzosin 10 mg prolonged-release tablets should not be administered to this patient group.
