ENGLISH VERSION

COMPOSITION:
CARVAS film-coated tablet, each tablet contains:
Nifedipine …………………….. 10 mg

PHARMACOLOGY:
Nifedipine is a calcium antagonist. It inhibits the calcium ion influx into the myocardial cell and into the smooth muscle cell of the coronary arteries and the peripheral resistance vessels. This results in the following beneficial effects:
- Nifedipine dilates the coronary arteries and thus, improves the myocardial oxygen supply through an increase in coronary blood flow. At the same time, the myocardial oxygen requirement is reduced by reduction in the afterload. Consequently, nifedipine reduced the frequency and intensity of angina pectoris attacks. With long-term use, nifedipine can also prevent the development of new atherosclerotic lesions in the coronary arteries.
- Nifedipine dilates the peripheral arterial vessels and thus, reduces the peripheral resistance. As a result, nifedipine lower the elevated blood pressure.

INDICATIONS:
- Treatment of coronary heart disease: stable angina pectoris (angina of effort) and post-infarction angina pectoris.
- Treatment of hypertension

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
- Nifedipine is contraindicated throughout pregnancy
- Hypersensitivity to nifedipine

PRECAUTIONS AND WARNINGS:
