felodipine has been researched along with Auricular Fibrillation in 1 studies
Felodipine: A dihydropyridine calcium antagonist with positive inotropic effects. It lowers blood pressure by reducing peripheral vascular resistance through a highly selective action on smooth muscle in arteriolar resistance vessels.
felodipine : The mixed (methyl, ethyl) diester of 4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid. A calcium-channel blocker, it lowers blood pressure by reducing peripheral vascular resistance through a highly selective action on smooth muscle in arteriolar resistance vessels. It is used in the management of hypertension and angina pectoris.

| "The history of the treatment of heart failure may be divided into three stages, the consequences of different conceptions of the physiopathology of the disease, with diuretics to counteract salt and water retention, vasodilators to improve conditions of cardiac load, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors to limit the effect of neurotumoral and sympathetic activation." | 2.39 | [Calcium antagonists and treatment of chronic heart failure].
