Description
Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risksMode of Action
Nifedipine prevents Ca ion from entering the slow channels of cardiac and smooth muscles during depolarisation, producing peripheral and coronary vasodilatation. It reduces afterload, peripheral resistance and BP; increases coronary blood flow and causes reflex tachycardia. It has little or no effect on cardiac conduction and rarely has negative inotropic activity.Interaction
Enhanced antihypertensive effects w/ other antihypertensives, aldesleukin, and antipsychotics. Concomitant use w/ fentanyl during surgery caused severe hypotension. May modify insulin and glucose responses. Attenuation of tachycardic effect when used w/ benazerpril. Prothrombin time may be increased w/ coumarin anticoagulants. Increased serum levels w/ CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. azole antifungals, cimetidine, erythromycin, HIV-protease inhibitors, nefazodone, fluoxetine, quinupristin/dalfopristin). Potentially Fatal: Decreased bioavailability and efficacy w/ strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g. rifampicin, phenytoin, carbamazepine).Pregnancy Category Note
