nifedipine and Flushing

nifedipine has been researched along with Flushing in 8 studies

Nifedipine: A potent vasodilator agent with calcium antagonistic action. It is a useful anti-anginal agent that also lowers blood pressure.

Flushing: A transient reddening of the face that may be due to fever, certain drugs, exertion, or stress.

Dutch Barnidipine Multicenter Study Group. ( Hart, W; Holwerda, NJ, 1997)
"Amlodipine treatment was associated with a slightly higher incidence of side effects compared with placebo, but most of this difference was the result of edema, which was usually well tolerated."2.66The safety of amlodipine. ( Osterloh, I, 1989)
