Procardia XL Information:
Procardia XL (generic name: Nifedipine XL) is a drug which is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, and angina (chest pain). The active ingredient is Nifedipine XL. Nifedipine XL is a calcium channel blocker. It works by relaxing the muscles in your heart and blood vessels. Many patients with hypertension do not have any symptoms at all, which is why it has been dubbed “the silent killer”, it is therefore recommended that after age 60 you have your blood pressure checked on a regular basis – at least once every 6 months. Some people may experience symptoms such as dizziness and feelings of nausea. Hypertension is more common in women than men and the risk increases with age. Hypertension increases the risk of heart disease, angina, stroke and blood clots. Angina is chest pain, and can be caused by various heart conditions and high blood pressure. Untreated hypertension can lead to a stroke or even a heart attack, and it is therefore important that it is not left untreated.
