ABSTRACT:
The subject invention provides a method of treating benign prostatic hyperplasia in a subject which comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound which binds to a human .alpha..sub.1C adrenergic receptor with a binding affinity greater than ten-fold higher than the binding affinity with which the compound binds to a human .alpha..sub.1A adrenergic receptor, a human .alpha..sub.1B adrenergic receptor, a human histamine H.sub.1 receptor and .alpha..sub.2 adrenergic receptor. The subject invention also provides a method of inhibiting contraction of prostate tissue which comprises contacting the prostate tissue with an effective contraction-inhibiting amount of such compound.
