l Biological Information |
Biochem/Physiol Actions | Cilnidipine is a slow-acting Ca2+ channel blocker; antihypertensive; vasodilator; dual blocker of L-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channels in vascular smooth muscle and N-type Ca2+ channels in sympathetic nerve terminals that supply blood vessels. Cilnidipine may offer an advantage over nifedipine as the long term intake of the latter has been ed to increased risk of myocardial infarction and mortality in patients with coronary artery disease. Cilnidipine lowers blood pressure, but has less effect on sympathetic activity. Unlike nifedipine, cilnidipine does not inhibit PKC. |
Application | A class of drugs that act by selective inhibition of calcium influx through cellular membranes. |
