Nifedipine and Platelets in Preeclampsia
American Journal of Hypertension, 1988In addition to its antihypertensive properties, nifedipine inhibits platelet aggregation in vitro. Because increased platelet aggregation is a feature of preeclampsia, we have investigated nifedipine in this condition. Ten women at 31 +/- 2.8 weeks gestation, with blood pressure 162 +/- 18/102 +/- 10 mmHg (despite atenolol 200 mg/day) and proteinuria 2.

Nifedipine and the conditioning response
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1984The effect of nifedipine (N) on conditioning was studied in 14 healthy sedentary men, aged 20 to 34 years. Subjects were ranked according to maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max), paired, and 1 of each pair randomly assigned to take N, 20 mg, or placebo (C) 3 times daily.

Nifedipine for intractable hiccups
Neurology, 1990Seven patients with intractable hiccups were treated with a calcium channel blocker, nifedipine. A daily dose of 30 to 60 mg of this drug stopped hiccups in 4 patients and improved them in a 5th patient. In 2 patients hiccups recurred within 24 hours after stopping nifedipine. Nifedipine can be effective against intractable hiccups in some patients.

Hepatic reactions to nifedipine
Medical Journal of Australia, 1985Two cases in which abnormal liver function tests were associated with the use of nifedipine are reported. In both cases, liver function returned to normal after withdrawal of the drug. Evidence suggests that the toxic effect of nifedipine on the liver is due to hypersensitivity.

Nifedipine and systemic hypertension
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1989Nifedipine reduces blood pressure predominantly by reducing systemic vascular resistance due to a direct vasodilating action on the arterioles. This peripheral vasodilation appears greater the more severe the hypertension. Studies have demonstrated an additive effect of beta blockers and converting-enzyme inhibitors in patients not controlled with ...
