Nicardia Retard 20mg Tablet is a prescription medication used to manage high blood pressure and chest pain caused by heart disease. It contains nifedipine, which belongs to a group of medicines called calcium channel blockers. This medication works by relaxing blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and reducing the workload on your heart. Nicardia Retard is an extended-release formulation, meaning it releases the medication slowly throughout the day for consistent, long-lasting control of your blood pressure. Do not use this medicine if you are allergic to nifedipine or have recently suffered a heart attack. Always inform your doctor about any existing heart conditions, as special monitoring may be required.
Key points
Nicardia Retard 20mg Tablet works by blocking calcium ions from entering muscle cells in your blood vessels and heart. This action relaxes the muscles in your blood vessel walls, allowing them to widen (vasodilation). When blood vessels relax and widen, blood pressure decreases and blood flows more easily to your heart, reducing the chest pain associated with angina and improving overall heart function.
Take Nicardia Retard 20mg Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The extended-release tablet must be swallowed whole without crushing, chewing, or breaking it. Your doctor will determine the right dose based on your age, weight, and medical condition. Continue taking this medicine even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often has no symptoms.
