Doxazosin is an α-1 adrenergic receptor blocker that inhibits the binding of norepinephrine, which is released from sympathetic nerve terminals, to the α-1 receptors on the membrane of vascular smooth muscle cells. Blockages of the alpha-1 adrenergic action on the vascular smooth muscles lead to a decrease in vascular resistance and antihypertensive activity.
