Nefidinol Retard 10 Tablet Sr 10 contains Nifedipine (10 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Calcium channel blocking: Nifedipine blocks the calcium channels in the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels, preventing calcium from entering these cells. This action stops the contraction process that narrows blood vessels.

• Blood vessel relaxation: By reducing calcium entry into muscle cells, nifedipine causes the blood vessels to relax and widen (dilate). This relaxation decreases resistance to blood flow throughout the circulatory system.

• Blood pressure reduction: The widening of blood vessels leads to lower resistance against blood flow, effectively reducing blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

• Improved cardiac blood supply: By dilating coronary arteries (the blood vessels that supply the heart), nifedipine increases oxygen delivery to the heart muscle, which helps relieve chest pain in angina.

• Reduce sodium intake: Limiting salt in your diet helps manage high blood pressure (hypertension). Try using herbs and spices instead of salt to flavour your food.

• Regular physical activity: Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week to help lower blood pressure and improve heart health.
