Nifedipine
CAS#: 21829-25-4
Nifedipine is a medication classified as a calcium channel blocker, primarily prescribed to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina (chest pain). It works by relaxing blood vessels, thereby improving blood flow and reducing the workload on the heart. Nifedipine is commonly administered in tablet or extended-release form, helping to lower blood pressure and alleviate symptoms of angina.
