Precautions for children: The safety and effectiveness of this product for children have not been determined. Precautions for pregnancy and lactation: In a study conducted before and after delivery in rats, the mortality rate of young rats in the group given a dose of 120 mg/(kg·day) (75 times the maximum recommended dose for humans) was significantly higher than that in the control group within 3 weeks after delivery. It is not clear whether terazosin is secreted in breast milk. Because many drugs are secreted in breast milk, care should be taken when terazosin is given to lactating women.
