xWhat Is Adalat LA 30 Tablets?
Adalat LA 30 Tablets 30mg from Bayer Pharma contain Nifedipine in a long-acting (LA) once-daily formulation. It is a calcium channel blocker prescribed for high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina, and requires a prescription.
How It Works
Nifedipine relaxes and widens blood vessels by blocking calcium from entering the smooth muscle cells that line them. This makes it easier for blood to flow, lowers blood pressure, and reduces the workload on the heart, which also helps relieve angina symptoms.
Dosage
For hypertension, the usual adult dose is one 30mg tablet once daily, preferably on an empty stomach, which your doctor may increase to 60mg once daily if needed. For angina, dosing differs and should be set by your physician. Nifedipine is not recommended for children.
Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, flushing, swelling of the ankles or legs, and constipation. Less commonly, patients may experience low blood pressure on standing, palpitations, or an upset stomach.
Precautions
Avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice for at least three days before and during treatment, as it can significantly raise nifedipine levels in the blood. Nifedipine should not be used within a month of a heart attack, during a sudden angina attack, or in unstable angina. Always check with your doctor before combining it with other blood pressure medicines.
