Minipress XL does not dissolve and comes back in the loo. Is there any substitute for the same salt?
Minipress XL is an extended-release (XL) formulation intended for gradual and sustained release of prazosin, which helps maintain more stable blood levels and reduces the need for frequent dosing. It is medically documented that the tablet's empty or nearly empty outer shell may appear in the stool, known as a "ghost tablet," and this is normal; it does not mean the medicine was ineffective, as the active drug is already absorbed. While prazosin is available in other forms, do not attempt to switch or replace it on your own, as the release pattern, dose, and other factors are crucial for safety and effectiveness; any change should be made only under a doctor's guidance.
