Product information
About
Nicardia XL from JB contains nifedipine in a once-daily extended-release form. It is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker used for steady control of blood pressure and angina.
Uses
- High blood pressure
- Chronic stable angina
- Vasospastic angina
How it works
Nifedipine widens arteries by relaxing the smooth muscle in their walls, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow to the heart. The XL form drip-feeds the drug over the day to keep levels even.
How to take
Swallow the tablet whole with water as prescribed by your doctor. Do not split, crush, or chew, and try to take it at the same time each day.
Side effects
- Headache or flushing
- Ankle or foot swelling
- Dizziness
- Palpitations
Precautions
Tell your doctor about heart failure, very low blood pressure, or liver disease. Avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice, which can raise drug levels in the body.
Storage
Store below 25 degrees Celsius, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
