nimodipine and Body Weight

nimodipine has been researched along with Body Weight in 21 studies

Nimodipine: A calcium channel blockader with preferential cerebrovascular activity. It has marked cerebrovascular dilating effects and lowers blood pressure.
nimodipine : A dihydropyridine that is 1,4-dihydropyridine which is substituted by methyl groups at positions 2 and 6, a (2-methoxyethoxy)carbonyl group at position 3, a m-nitrophenyl group at position 4, and an isopropoxycarbonyl group at position 5. An L-type calcium channel blocker, it acts particularly on cerebral circulation, and is used both orally and intravenously for the prevention and treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage from ruptured intracranial aneurysm.

Body Weight: The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms.

" Intraperitoneal treatment with the Ca2+ channel blocker, nimodipine, from week 4 onwards, in a dosage of 10 mg kg-1 or 20 mg kg-1 intraperitoneally per 48 h, resulted in a significant increase in sensory and motor nerve conduction velocity whereas treatment with 5 mg kg-1 intraperitoneally per 48 h was not effective."1.29Amelioration by the Ca2+ antagonist, nimodipine of an existing neuropathy in the streptozotocin-induced, diabetic rat. ( Bravenboer, B; Erkelens, DW; Gispen, WH; Kappelle, AC; Traber, J; van Buren, T, 1993)
