Adalat LA 30 Nifedipine 30mg

Adalat LA 30 is an oral medication containing the active ingredient Nifedipine (30 mg). It belongs to a class of drugs known as calcium channel blockers. It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and to prevent chronic stable angina (chest pain).

As a calcium channel blocker, it works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels. This allows blood to flow more easily, which lowers blood pressure and makes it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. The “LA” designation indicates a long-acting formulation, providing a steady release of medication over time.

Key Benefits:

– Sustained Hypertension Control

– Angina Prevention

– Reduced Cardiac Workload

– Long-Acting Formulation for Daily Dosing

CAUTION: This is a prescription-only medication. It should be used with caution in patients with very low blood pressure or severe heart conditions. Common side effects may include dizziness, headache, or swelling of the ankles. Do not stop taking Adalat LA 30 abruptly without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to a sudden increase in blood pressure or more frequent angina attacks.
