Alpha-Blockers may be used to treat patients with both HTN and what other condition?

  1. Diabetes

  2. BPH

  3. Asthma

  4. Hyperlipidemia

The correct answer is: BPH

Alpha-blockers may be used to treat patients with both hypertension (HTN) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Alpha-blockers, such as tamsulosin, help relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate. They are commonly prescribed for patients with BPH to relieve symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and urgency. While alpha-blockers are not typically used to treat diabetes, asthma, or hyperlipidemia, they can be beneficial for patients with HTN and comorbid BPH.
