What is nifedipine? What are the side effects of long term consumption?

Nifedipine is a type of high blood pressure.

In fact, it is also the world's first hydropyridine calcium antagonist.

Nifedipine was invented by a German company in 1969 and was first used for angina.

Later, it was marketed in the United States and was mainly used for high blood pressure. Today, after continuous improvement, nifedipine has also become one of the most common drugs for high blood pressure. Nifedipine is a calcium antagonist.

Its main effect is to inhibit vasospasm, which has a very fast effect for patients with high blood pressure, however, it is said that "it is a drug with three points of poison", and the *** of nifedipine is also very large, mainly as follows:

1. Nifedipine can cause peripheral edema. Long-term use of nifedipine may cause peripheral edema, and the reason why peripheral edema is mainly caused by the dilation of the arteries after multiple doses, resulting in edema. Edema mainly appears at the end of the lower limbs, of course, this edema phenomenon can also be improved, as long as diuretics are taken.

It can effectively prevent the phenomenon of peripheral edema.

2. Nifedipine can cause liver and kidney function.

Decline. Long-term use of nifedipine will greatly increase the burden on liver and kidney function, resulting in a decline in liver and kidney function. If the liver and kidney function is not good, you must be cautious about taking nifedipine, otherwise it will lead to more serious liver and kidney problems.

Therefore, before taking nifedipine, it is best to start with a small dose and make sure that there are no adverse effects in the body before increasing the dose.

3. Nifedipine can cause hypotension.

React. Nifedipine can be used to improve the symptoms of high blood pressure, and it is said that "the extreme must be reversed" and "too much", if you take nifedipine for a long time, it will also cause the other extreme problem, that is, the problem of low blood pressure. Because nifedipine lowers blood pressure too well, lowering blood pressure too much can trigger a hypotensive reaction, such as palpitations.

Chest tightness, etc., and even angina pectoris occasionally.

4. Nifedipine may cause eye discomfort. Long-term use of nifedipine will greatly dilate the range of blood vessels, and will also make the capillaries dilate rapidly, for the human eye, the dilation of capillaries will affect permeability, and then produce blurred vision, conjunctivitis.

and other uncomfortable symptoms. Of course, whether or not these symptoms will occur also varies from person to person, depending on whether the individual is sensitive to the drug.

5. Nifedipine can cause flushing. As mentioned earlier, nifedipine will dilate capillaries, and long-term use of nifedipine will cause the capillaries in the face to be over-dilated, and then the symptoms of flushing will appear.

All in all, although nifedipine is a good medicine for high blood pressure, its high blood pressure cannot be ignored. Therefore, before taking the drug for a long time, it is necessary to judge whether it can be taken for a long time according to the actual situation, and if it is obvious after taking the drug, the drug should be controlled, or replaced with other drugs. If there is nothing obvious after taking the drug, you can take it for a long time.

Nifedipine can affect the nervous system when taken for a long time, which is an anesthetic drug. It can make the nervous system quite uncomfortable, and it is a relatively bad drug.

This thing is a drug for angina pectoris and high blood pressure, and if you take it for a long time, you may have some edema and the like.

Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that has a hypotensive effect. It is an older antihypertensive drug with a short duration of action, and now more patients with chronic diseases are using long-acting antihypertensive drugs. Long-term use may result from a range of adverse effects, such as gingival hyperplasia.

Nifedipine is a drug that lowers blood pressure, and long-term consumption of nifedipine will easily cause certain damage to the liver and kidneys.

If it's so bad, it shouldn't be produced.

How to take nifedipine to lower blood pressure and improve coronary blood flow? What's there***?

It can increase the body's ability to form metabolism, promote absorption, gastrointestinal peristalsis, and can prevent constipation, replenish blood, etc., which are very good for the body.

It has great benefits for the body, can play a role in lowering blood pressure, and can also control the condition, and can also effectively prevent blood pressure fluctuations, and it is also very small.

Prevention and ** coronary heart disease, angina.

In addition to lowering blood pressure, nifedipine can also prevent coronary heart disease and angina. In particular, variable angina pectoris and angina due to coronary artery spasm.

In clinical practice, nifedipine tablets are more common, mainly because of its large blood pressure reduction amplitude and too fast blood pressure reduction, compared with the second-generation nifedipine sustained-release and controlled-release tablets. Among them, the common *** in the initial stage of taking nifedipine is headache, rapid heartbeat, flushing, and some gastrointestinal reactions, which are generally mild, and patients can tolerate them, and they can be slowly adapted to the follow-up, and the symptoms can be relieved or disappeared.

If you take it for a long time, you may also have gum hyperplasia, constipation, ankle edema, etc.***. If it is severe, you can consider changing the dressing according to the doctor's advice. It should be noted that the *** of nifedipine is positively correlated with the dose, so it is necessary to start with a small dose at the beginning of medication, gradually increase the dose, and choose the lowest effective dose for long-term use.

As a dipine-type antihypertensive drug, nifedipine has many merits in addition to its strong pressure reduction and good effect.

Nifedipine can be used in combination with four other types of antihypertensive drugs commonly used in clinical practice, and there are no absolute contraindications.

1.High blood pressure:

Baixin with 30m ** agent. 30 mg (1 tablet at a time), 1 time a day.

Baixin with 60m ** agent. 60 mg (1 tablet at a time), 1 time a day.

2.Coronary heart disease:

Chronic stable angina pectoris (exertional angina).

Baixin with 30m ** agent. 30 mg (1 tablet at a time), 1 time a day.

Baixin with 60m ** agent. 60 mg (1 tablet at a time), 1 time a day.

Usually, the initial dose is 30 mg per day.

Course of treatment: The duration of medication should be determined by the doctor.

Medication method: Usually the whole tablet is swallowed with a small amount of liquid, and the time of taking the medicine is not limited by the time of meals.

I wish you good health. Question 2: What should I pay attention to when taking nifedipine Taking nifedipine tablets, patients should strictly follow the doctor's instructions or the instructions of nifedipine tablets:

1.The dose of nifedipine should be titrated gradually depending on the patient's tolerance and control of angina. An overdose of nifedipine can lead to low blood pressure.

2.Start with a small dose, generally starting at 10 mg times, 3 times a day orally; The usual maintenance dose is 10 to 20 mg orally 3 times a day. For some patients with significant coronary spasm, it can be used up to 20 30 mg times a day, 3 to 4 times a day.

The maximum dose should not exceed 120mg per day. If the condition is urgent, it can be chewed or given sublingually 10 mg times, and the decision is made to re-administer the drug according to the patient's response to the drug.
