NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 is used for:

Long-term management of hypertension (high blood pressure).
Prevention and treatment of angina pectoris (chest pain due to reduced blood supply to the heart).

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet, as this may interfere with its prolonged-release effect.
Take the medicine at the same time each day for consistent blood levels.
Follow your doctor’s exact instructions regarding timing and dosage.

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 is taken orally.

Common side effects of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 include:

Dizziness
Headache
Flushing
Swelling of ankles or feet (peripheral oedema)
Nausea

Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Dizziness: Rise slowly from sitting or lying positions to prevent sudden drops in blood pressure.
Peripheral oedema: Elevate your legs when sitting, reduce salt intake, and inform your doctor if swelling persists.
Headache and flushing: Usually temporary; staying hydrated and resting in a cool environment may help.

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 contains the following active component:

Nifedipine (30 mg): Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that works by inhibiting calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac cells. This leads to relaxation of blood vessels, reduction in vascular resistance, improvement in blood flow, and a decrease in heart workload. It also dilates coronary arteries, enhancing oxygen delivery to the heart muscle.

Pregnancy

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 may be used during pregnancy for certain hypertensive conditions, but only under strict medical supervision. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor before use.

Breastfeeding

Nifedipine passes into breast milk in small amounts. Use during breastfeeding is not recommended unless clearly advised by your doctor.

Alcohol

Alcohol can enhance the blood pressure-lowering effects of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15, increasing the risk of dizziness and fainting. It is advisable to avoid or limit alcohol consumption.

Liver

Patients with liver impairment may require lower doses and closer monitoring, as nifedipine metabolism occurs in the liver.

Kidney

Although nifedipine is not primarily excreted by the kidneys, patients with severe kidney disease should use it cautiously, as fluid retention may worsen.

Use In Driving And Operating Machinery

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 may cause dizziness, light-headedness, or fatigue, especially at the start of treatment or when the dose is adjusted. Avoid driving, cycling, or operating heavy machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.

Allergy

Patients with known allergy to nifedipine or any of the excipients should not take NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15. Allergic reactions may include rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty in breathing.

Children

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 is not recommended in children and adolescents below 18 years of age.

Older Patients

Elderly patients may be more sensitive to the blood pressure-lowering effects of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 and are at higher risk of dizziness or fainting. Careful monitoring is required.

Drug-Drug Interactions

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 may interact with the following medications:

Beta-blockers (e.g., propranolol): May increase the risk of excessive blood pressure reduction or heart failure.
Antifungals (e.g., ketoconazole) and macrolide antibiotics (e.g., erythromycin): May raise nifedipine levels, increasing side effect risk.
Rifampin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, St. John’s Wort: May reduce the effectiveness of nifedipine.
Antihypertensives and diuretics: May enhance blood pressure-lowering effects, requiring dosage adjustment.

Drug-Food Interactions

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 may interact with the following foods:

Grapefruit juice : Grapefruit juice may increase nifedipine blood levels, raising the risk of side effects. Avoid grapefruit and its juice during treatment.

Drug-Disease Interactions

NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 may interact with the following conditions:

Heart failure: May worsen cardiac function in certain patients.
Hypotension: May further lower blood pressure in patients with already low readings.
Gastrointestinal disorders (e.g., severe diarrhoea): May reduce absorption and effectiveness of the medicine.

Daily Dose

The recommended dose of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 is determined by your doctor based on your blood pressure, heart condition, age, and response to treatment. Do not adjust the dose on your own.

Over Dose

An overdose of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15 may cause severe hypotension, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, slow heartbeat, or in rare cases, cardiac arrest. Seek immediate medical attention in suspected overdose.

Missed Dose

If you miss a dose of NICARDIA CD RETARD 30 TABLET 15, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose. Do not take a double dose to make up for the forgotten one.

Store at room temperature in a dry place.
Keep away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.
Keep out of reach and sight of children.
Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

Reduce sodium intake: Limit salt and processed foods to maintain controlled blood pressure.
Potassium-rich foods: Bananas, spinach, and sweet potatoes may support blood pressure control, unless restricted for kidney reasons.
Avoid smoking: Smoking increases cardiovascular risk and diminishes the effectiveness of antihypertensive therapy.
