Nitrendipine, an investigational dihydropyridine calcium-channel antagonist for the treatment of hypertension, is reviewed. Clinical trials report efficacy equal to that of hydralazine, diuretics, beta-blockers, and other calcium-channel blockers such as nifedipine, verapamil, and isradipine. Nitrendipine has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile

Nitrendipine is a calcium entry blocker shown to inhibit the movement of calcium through the 'slow channel' of cardiac and vascular smooth muscle, thus inducing peripheral vasodilation with consequent reductions in elevated blood pressure. As evidenced by clinical trials, nitrendipine

Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology, 18 Suppl 5, S19-S21 (1991-01-01)
Abnormalities of glucose and lipoprotein metabolism have frequently been found in hypertensive patients in both epidemiological and clinical studies. Reduction of blood pressure favorably affects the rate of cardiovascular diseases mainly when concomitant with a decrease in glucose and lipid

Calcium-entry blockers exert several characteristic effects on the kidney that potentiate their antihypertensive effect. Long-term therapy with nitrendipine, a dihydropyridine derivative, lowers blood pressure while maintaining renal hemodynamics within limits similar to pretreatment values in essential hypertension with normal renal

Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology, 6 Suppl 7, S986-S995 (1984-01-01)
Some calcium antagonists, including nitrendipine, were noted to cause a dose-dependent and reversible inhibition of insulin release in certain animal models. Therefore, it is important to know the effects of clinical treatment with calcium antagonists in nondiabetic or diabetic man.
