Felodipine
Felodipine is a medication of the calcium channel blocker type that is used to treat high blood pressure.
It was patented in 1978, and approved for medical use in 1988.
Felodipine is used to treat high blood pressure and stable angina.
It should not be used for people who are pregnant, have acute heart failure, are having a heart attack, have an obstructed heart valve, or have obstructions that block bloodflow out of the heart.
For people with liver failure the dose needs to be lowered, because felodipine is cleared by the liver.
The only very common side effect, occurring in more than 1/10 people, is pain and swelling in the arms and legs.
Common side effects, occurring in between 1% and 10% of people, include flushing, headache, heart palpitations, dizziness and fatigue.
Felodipine can exacerbate gingivitis.
