Abstract

Terazosin is used in men for symptom relief in the case of benign prostatic hyperplasia. This is categorized under the group of alpha one adrenoreceptor blockers. Terazosin is also used in high blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels so that blood can easily pass through. In this systematic review different analytical methods for the determination of terazosin in different matrices are discussed. Overall thirty six different analytical methods for the determination of terazosin were found in literature survey, 12 spectrophotometry, 2 TLC, 2 HPTLC, 16 HPLC and 4 electroanalytical methods were found. Advantages and disadvantages of available methods are also discussed. This review also adds knowledge about the place of terazosin therapy in hypertension or enlarged prostate. This review is useful for the researchers involved in the development of new analytical method or formulation.
