amlodipine and Calcinosis

amlodipine has been researched along with Calcinosis in 3 studies

Amlodipine: A long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It is effective in the treatment of ANGINA PECTORIS and HYPERTENSION.
amlodipine : A fully substituted dialkyl 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate derivative, which is used for the treatment of hypertension, chronic stable angina and confirmed or suspected vasospastic angina.

Calcinosis: Pathologic deposition of calcium salts in tissues.
