Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Your doctor may prescribe Dibenzyline to treat several conditions, including paroxysmal hypertension or sweating from pheochromocytoma, a rare tumor of the adrenal gland.
Dibenzyline is a non-selective alpha-adrenergic antagonist that works by blocking alpha-adrenergic receptors. This prevents norepinephrine (a hormone that constricts blood vessels) from binding to these receptors. This action relaxes blood vessels, leading to lowered blood pressure and reduced sweating.

The active ingredient in Dibenzyline is phenoxybenzamine.
The most common drug-drug interactions may include:
Dibenzyline should be used with caution if you have a history of cardiovascular disease, renal impairment, or conditions that affect blood pressure regulation. Tell your doctor if you have a history of arteriosclerosis (blocked arteries) in cerebral or coronary arteries.
Dibenzyline can cause significant drops in blood pressure, especially upon standing (orthostatic hypotension), leading to dizziness or fainting. Slowly rise from sitting or lying to reduce the risk of these effects.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure and other vital signs is essential during treatment with phenoxybenzamine.
It is not recommended to use this drug long-term because there are case reports of carcinogenesis and mutagenesis in human patients with long-term treatment.
