A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Using aspirin together with prazosin may decrease the effects of prazosin. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or if your blood pressure increases. If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or need to check your blood pressure more often to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may decrease the antihypertensive effect of prazosin. The proposed mechanism is NSAID-induced inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. Data are available for indomethacin. A similar interaction is expected with other NSAIDs.

MANAGEMENT: The patient's blood pressure should be monitored during coadministration, and the dosage adjusted as necessary.
