amlodipine and Ureteral Obstruction

amlodipine has been researched along with Ureteral Obstruction in 2 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.

Ureteral Obstruction: Blockage in any part of the URETER causing obstruction of urine flow from the kidney to the URINARY BLADDER. The obstruction may be congenital, acquired, unilateral, bilateral, complete, partial, acute, or chronic. Depending on the degree and duration of the obstruction, clinical features vary greatly such as HYDRONEPHROSIS and obstructive nephropathy.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" To address this issue, we examined the difference between the effects of amlodipine (an L-type Ca(2+) channel blocker) and cilnidipine (a dual L/N-type Ca(2+) channel blocker) on fibrotic changes using a rat unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model."3.79Involvement of N-type Ca(2+) channels in the fibrotic process of the kidney in rats.
