nifedipine and Liver Cirrhosis, Alcoholic

nifedipine has been researched along with Liver Cirrhosis, Alcoholic in 3 studies

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

Liver Cirrhosis, Alcoholic: FIBROSIS of the hepatic parenchyma due to chronic excess ALCOHOL DRINKING.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Following the administration of 10 mg of nifedipine to 11 patients with well-compensated alcoholic cirrhosis, there was a significant fall in mean arterial blood pressure, accompanied by an increase in heart rate, presumably due to a significant decrease in systemic vascular resistance."9.07Nifedipine: its effects on renal hemodynamics and sodium homeostasis in well-compensated alcoholic cirrhosis. ( Dudley, F; Hsu, P; Massie, D; Wong, F, 1994)
