nifedipine and Contracture
nifedipine has been researched along with Contracture in 4 studies
Nifedipine: A potent vasodilator agent with calcium antagonistic action. It is a useful anti-anginal agent that also lowers blood pressure.
Contracture: Prolonged shortening of the muscle or other soft tissue around a joint, preventing movement of the joint.

"The contractures were not due to depolarization (membrane potential, Vm, did not change during Cd2+ removal) or to an influx of external Ca2+ (the transient tension increase was recorded when solutions either lacked Ca2+, or contained 2 mM Co2+)." | 5.31 | Cadmium withdrawal contractures in rat soleus muscle fibres.
