Nicardia Retard CD is prescribed for the management of coronary heart disease, chronic stable angina pectoris (effort angina), and hypertension. By lowering blood pressure, the medication helps minimize the risk of both fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular incidents, particularly strokes and myocardial infarctions. Nicardia Retard CD belongs to a class of drugs known as calcium channel blockers. It functions by relaxing the muscle tissue of the heart and blood vessels. The key ingredient in Nicardia Retard CD is Nifedipine.
Nifedipine is utilized to address hypertension (elevated blood pressure) and angina (chest discomfort). Nicardia Retard CD is categorized as a calcium channel blocker, which relaxes (widens) blood vessels (veins and arteries), facilitating easier heart function and lessening its workload.
Administer Nicardia Retard CD precisely as directed by your healthcare provider. Avoid taking it in larger or smaller doses than prescribed or for a longer duration than recommended. Your doctor may adjust your dosage occasionally to ensure optimal results. Take Nicardia Retard CD on an empty stomach. Do not crush, chew, break, or open the capsule; swallow it whole. Altering the capsule may lead to excessive release of the drug at once.
Contact your doctor if you experience persistent vomiting or diarrhea, or if you find yourself sweating excessively. These conditions might result in dangerously low blood pressure. If you have surgery scheduled, inform the surgeon that you are using Nicardia Retard CD beforehand. You may need to discontinue it temporarily without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well. Stopping abruptly may worsen your condition. Often, high blood pressure presents no symptoms, and you may require blood pressure medication for your entire life.
Your blood pressure will need regular monitoring, and you might require additional blood tests during doctor visits. Ensure you see your doctor consistently. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if your next scheduled dose is near. Do not take an additional dose to make up for the missed one.
The most frequently reported side effect of Nicardia Retard CD is peripheral edema. Other side effects recorded with an occurrence of 3% or less at daily doses up to 90 mg include chest pain, leg pain, paresthesia, vertigo, rash, constipation, leg cramps, nosebleeds, rhinitis, impotence, and frequent urination.
Seek immediate medical attention if you notice signs of an allergic reaction, such as hives, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat.
