nifedipine and Hypertrophy

nifedipine has been researched along with Hypertrophy in 21 studies

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

Hypertrophy: General increase in bulk of a part or organ due to CELL ENLARGEMENT and accumulation of FLUIDS AND SECRETIONS, not due to tumor formation, nor to an increase in the number of cells (HYPERPLASIA).

( Imai, E; Moriyama, T; Oka, K; Ueda, H, 2004)
