Summary – Dihydropyridine vs Nondihydropyridine Calcium Channel Blockers Calcium channel blockers or CCB are a group of medications that can disrupt the movement of calcium cations through calcium channels. The key difference between dihydropyridine and nondihydropyridine calcium channel blockers is tha...
Dihydropyridine and nondihydropyridine CCBs have somewhat different side-effect profiles. With dihydropyridines, vasodilation-dependent adverse effects (flushing, palpitations, ankle edema) predominate, whereas with verapamil and diltiazem, vasodilation symptoms are generally milder and cardiac conductance and gast...
For this reason, the clinical utility of nondihydropyridine CCBs is their negative inotropic and chronotropic action on the heart, whereas the vasodilating properties of the dihydropyridines (e.g., amlodipine) make them preferred for the treatment of hypertension. Numerous studies have confirmed that ...
Context: Amlodipine, a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB), is the leading cause of cardiovascular drug-related overdose deaths in the USA. In contrast, angiotensin-II receptor blockers (ARBs) and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) cause minimal toxicity in overdose. ACEIs/A...
Found that volunteer that received CCB drug compare with month 3 and 12, the level of eGFR decreases (t=1.085) and Urine Microalbumin increases (t=1.496) by statistically significance (P = 0.002) and Dihydropyridine Calcium channel blockers (CCB) on Fasting blood sugar compares with month 3 ...
Substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds, including certain of the pure enantiomers and the present invention provides a pharmaceutical formulation. These same compounds to provide a simultaneous reduction and β-MyHC protein levels of β-MyHC mRNA level most frequently, and also provides an increase ...

They were more likely to be female, have diabetes and COPD, and less likely to have heart failure and had a lower mean CHADS 2 score (3.3 vs. 3.5). Non-DHP CCB use was not associated with an increased risk of stroke/non-CNS SE (P=0.11) or the composite outcome of NMCR or major...
