Calcium channel blockers or CCB are a group of medications that can disrupt the movement of calcium cations through calcium channels. These components are useful in antihypertensive drugs, such as medication used to treat high blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Dihydropyridine calcium chan...
chronic NSAID intake tended to be associated with a lower incidence of bleeding on active treatment as compared to placebo (-value of the interaction term = 0.07).The effect of chronic NSAID intake on outcome was similar in patients on active treatment based on a dihydropyridine CCB or on plac...
Therefore, vasodilating drugs, such as calcium-channel blockers and nitrates, are the most important treatment options for vasospastic angina (Table 3).25 Nondihydropyridine calcium-channel blockers are preferred in vasospastic angina, but dihydropyridine calcium-channel blockers also can be used in...
Conclusion: The effect of chronic NSAID intake on outcome was similar in patients on active treatment based on a dihydropyridine CCB or on placebo. However, chronic NSAID intake might have a less deleterious effect on bleeding on active treatment as compared to placebo.Celis...
