FAQ's on Zaxyben 50mg Injection

How does Zaxyben cause tachycardia?

Zaxyben belongs to alpha receptor blockers class of medicines. Alpha receptors blockade decreases resistance thereby increasing blood flow to the skin, mucosa (membrane that lines various cavities of the body), and abdominal viscera (membrane lining the abdomen). This results in lowering of blood pressure. This reduced blood pressure and increased release of chemical messenger (noradrenaline) results in reflex tachycardia.

What are the advantages of using Zaxyben in pheochromocytoma?

Using Zaxyben in pheochromocytoma is beneficial due to its long duration of action leading to twice daily dosing. Along with that, it prevents episodic increase of catecholamine releases during pre- and post-operative period which helps in keeping the blood pressure under control during surgical procedures.

Can Zaxyben affect sex life?

Yes, use of Zaxyben may affect sex life. It may cause inhibition of ejaculation and may make the patient impotent. However, these effects are generally mild and lasts for only a short time. Discuss with your doctor if you experience this.

How quickly does Zaxyben work?

The maximum effect of Zaxyben is attained in about 1 hour after the dose. However, it may take several hours to see the effect after a single oral dose. These effects may persist for 3-4 days.
