Prazosin causes the small blood vessels to relax, making it easier for blood to circulate, thus decreasing blood pressure.
Keep out of reach of children. Should not be used in animals with low blood pressure or those with chronic kidney problems. Most side effects occur at the beginning of treatment. They can include dizziness or even fainting when your animal first stands up. Other side effects are related to the digestive tract and can include vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation.
If you miss a dose, give to your pet as soon as you remember, unless it is too close to the regular dosing schedule. Then, just give dosage as normal.
