The Pathogenesis of Drug-Induced Gingival Overgrowth

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Periodontology, 1996
Abstract Gingival overgrowth is a well‐documented unwanted effect, associated with phenytoin, cyclosporin. and the calcium channel blockers. The pathogenesis of drug‐induced gingival overgrowth is uncertain, and there appears to be no unifying hypothesis that links together the 3 commonly implicated drugs.

Medication Induced Gingival Overgrowth

open access: yesOral Diseases, 1998
A number of idiopathic, pathological and pharmacological reactions may result in an overgrowth of the gingiva. This review concentrates on those overgrowths associated with various pharmacological agents. The pharmacokinetics and side effects of each drug associated with gingival overgrowth are discussed along with the clinical and histological ...

Gingival Sequestration of Nifedipine in Nifedipine-Induced Gingival Overgrowth

Lancet, The, 1992
The mechanism of gingival overgrowth associated with long-term use of nifedipine and of other drugs that affect calcium homoeostasis, such as cyclosporin and phenytoin, is unknown. With an ultrasensitive assay, we measured the pharmacokinetics of nifedipine in plasma and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of nine patients receiving this drug for angina ...

Drug-induced gingival overgrowth

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1993
Certain anticonvulsants, cyclosporine, and a variety of calcium channel blockers have been shown to produce clinically and histologically similar gingival enlargements in certain susceptible patients. These drugs appear to be similar with respect to their pharmacologic mechanism of action at the cellular level.
