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.

Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology, 14 Suppl 10, S27-S32 (1989-01-01)
Throughout the developed world, populations are growing older. Blood pressure, especially systolic blood pressure, increases with aging, and this increase leads to increased risks of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Clinical trials demonstrate that treatment of hypertension in the elderly reduces

Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology, 12 Suppl 4, S6-10 (1988-01-01)
Nitrendipine [3-ethyl-5-methyl-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-3,5-pyridine dicarboxylate] is a calcium antagonist with a dihydropyridine structure that has a great structural resemblance to nifedipine. Instead of a methyl group in position 3, it has an ethyl group and the NO2 group is in the meta
S Kazda et al.
Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology, 12 Suppl 4, S1-S5 (1988-01-01)
The mechanism of the antihypertensive effect of nitrendipine is believed to be vasodilation, resulting in a reduction of the total peripheral resistance. However, in contrast to other arteriolar vasodilators, nitrendipine exerts natriuretic and diuretic effects that are more pronounced in
M Mancini et al.
Journal of cardiovascular pharmacology, 18 Suppl 1, S30-S33 (1991-01-01)
There is evidence that hypertensive patients frequently have other metabolic disorders, such as hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus. It is also known that the reduction in high blood pressure alone, disregarding the other cardiovascular risk factors, is unable to reduce mortality
