Azelnidipine

Uses

Azelnidipine is used in the treatment of angina (heart-related chest pain), hypertension (high blood pressure), arrhythmia, hypertensive emergency, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and anal fissure.

How it Works

How Azelnidipine works Azelnidipine is a calcium channel blocker that regulates blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and reducing pressure on them. This action makes it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body, thereby normalizing blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Expert Advice

  • A sudden drop in blood pressure may occur, particularly when you first start taking Azelnidipine.
  • To reduce the risk of feeling dizzy or fainting, rise slowly after sitting or lying down.
  • Azelnidipine may cause swelling in the ankles or feet.
  • To alleviate swelling, elevate your legs while seated.
  • Consult your doctor if the swelling does not subside.
  • Dizziness may occur; avoid driving or engaging in activities that require mental focus until you understand how Azelnidipine affects you.
  • Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
  • You have been prescribed Azelnidipine to improve your blood pressure and/or to decrease the frequency and severity of angina attacks.
  • Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of future heart attacks and strokes.
  • Take Azelnidipine at the same time every day to help remember your dosage.
