felodipine and Impaired Glucose Tolerance

felodipine has been researched along with Impaired Glucose Tolerance 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.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effects of long-term monotherapy with felodipine, a calcium antagonist, on blood pressure, glucose tolerance, and serum lipid profiles were prospectively investigated in 51 hypertensive patients: 13 with normal glucose tolerance and 38 with glucose intolerance."3.69Felodipine therapy may not alter glucose and lipid metabolism in hypertensives. Felodipine Multicenter Prospective Study Group in Japan. ( Hariya, Y; Ishii, J; Katayama, S; Kitamoto, K; Nagasawa, K; Nagasawa, T; Ohyama, Y; Sato, R; Shionoiri, H; Takizawa, T, 1994)
