Nefidinol Retard 20 Tablet 10 contains Nifedipine (20 mg), which works in the following ways:

• Inhibits calcium influx: Nifedipine acts by blocking calcium ions from getting into certain cells in your body. These cells are found in vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle.
• Vasodilation: By blocking calcium ions, nifedipine causes these muscles to relax and widen (vasodilation). This effectively reduces peripheral vascular resistance and lowers arterial blood pressure.
• Reduces workload on the heart: Relaxing and widening blood vessels means less work for the heart as it pumps blood around your body.
• Improves oxygen supply: By reducing the workload on the heart, nifedipine improves blood and oxygen supply to the heart muscle, helping prevent conditions like angina, heart attacks, and strokes.
