What is Nifedipine?

Коринфар is a calcium channel blocker containing nifedipine, used to manage high blood pressure and chest pain. It relaxes blood vessels for smoother blood flow. This EU-made oral medication is widely prescribed for cardiovascular support.

What is Nifedipine used for?

Nifedipine, the active ingredient in Коринфар, is primarily used to treat high blood pressure and angina (chest pain). It works by relaxing the muscles of the heart and blood vessels, improving circulation. Doctors may also prescribe it for conditions involving narrowed arteries.

What are the side effects of Nifedipine?

Users often report a gradual reduction in blood pressure after starting nifedipine. Some may notice improved exercise tolerance due to reduced chest discomfort. Mild side effects like flushing or dizziness can occur as the body adjusts to the medication.

Take Коринфар exactly as directed, preferably with food to reduce stomach upset. Avoid grapefruit products, as they may interact with the medication. Regular blood pressure checks are recommended during treatment to monitor effectiveness.

What does Nifedipine interact with?

Nifedipine can interact with alcohol, other blood pressure medications, and certain antibiotics or antifungals. Grapefruit juice may increase nifedipine levels in the blood. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you are taking.
