nitrendipine and Calcinosis

nitrendipine has been researched along with Calcinosis in 2 studies

Nitrendipine: A calcium channel blocker with marked vasodilator action. It is an effective antihypertensive agent and differs from other calcium channel blockers in that it does not reduce glomerular filtration rate and is mildly natriuretic, rather than sodium retentive.
nitrendipine : A dihydropyridine that is 1,4-dihydropyridine substituted by methyl groups at positions 2 and 6, a 3-nitrophenyl group at position 4, a ethoxycarbonyl group at position 3 and a methoxycarbonyl group at position 5. It is a calcium-channel blocker used in the treatment of hypertension.

Calcinosis: Pathologic deposition of calcium salts in tissues.

"The relationship between the presence of arterial calcinosis and the antihypertensive response to calcium blockers was studied in 40 hypertensive patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF) on chronic hemodialysis, before and during 16 weeks after administration of nitrendipine in monotherapy."5.07Arteriosclerosis and antihypertensive response to calcium antagonists in end-stage renal failure.
