Nicardia XL 60 Tablet 15 is used to control high blood pressure and reduce chest pain due to angina by relaxing blood vessels and improving oxygen supply to the heart. It also helps lower the risk of major cardiovascular complications, including stroke and heart attack. The tablet supports long-term management of vasospastic and chronic stable angina.

Here's how you should take Nicardia XL 60 Tablet:

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
Do not break, chew, or crush the tablet.
Always consult your doctor before altering your dosage or stopping this medicine.

Nicardia XL 60 Tablet is taken orally.

Nicardia XL 60 Tablet may cause side effects such as headache, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, constipation, and peripheral oedema causing swelling in the ankles and feet. If these side effects trouble you, speak with your doctor.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Nicardia XL 60 Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are a couple of suggestions for managing common side effects:

Nausea: Try taking Nicardia XL 60 Tablet with food or milk.
Constipation: Consider drinking plenty of water and eating high-fibre foods when taking this medication.

Nicardia XL 60 Tablet contains nifedipine (60 mg) and works in the following ways:

Relaxation of Blood Vessels: Nifedipine relaxes and widens your blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing the workload on your heart.
Inhibition of Calcium Ions: As a calcium channel blocker, it inhibits the influx of calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiac muscle cells. This action relaxes arterial smooth muscle, decreases peripheral vascular resistance, and reduces blood pressure.
Increased Oxygen Supply: In the case of angina, nifedipine increases the oxygen supply to the heart muscle by dilating the coronary arteries and reducing coronary vascular resistance.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Nicardia XL 60 Tablet if you are pregnant as it may harm the foetus. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using Nicardia XL 60 Tablet.

Alcohol

It is best to avoid alcohol while taking Nicardia XL 60 Tablet, as it may increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness and low blood pressure.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Nicardia XL 60 Tablet in case of impaired liver function. If you have liver problems, discuss them with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Nicardia XL 60 Tablet if you have a history of any kidney problems. It's a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Nicardia XL 60 Tablet may cause dizziness or fatigue, affecting your ability to drive or operate machinery. Be cautious until you know how the medicine affects you.

Allergy

If you are allergic to Nifedipine or any other component of Nicardia XL 60 Tablet, avoid using this medicine.

Children

Nicardia XL 60 Tablet is meant for adult use. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Antiarrhythmics: Quinidine, a medicine used to manage abnormal heart rhythms, can interact with Nicardia XL 60 Tablet, potentially altering its effectiveness.
Gastrointestinal agents: Medicines like cimetidine may interact with Nicardia XL 60 Tablet, increasing the levels of nifedipine in the blood and leading to increased side effects.
Antituberculosis medication: The interaction of rifampin with Nicardia XL 60 Tablet may decrease the effectiveness of nifedipine.

Drug-Food Interactions

Certain foods might interact with Nicardia XL 60 Tablet:

Grapefruit : Eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while on this medication can boost nifedipine levels in your blood and escalate side effects.

It's essential to follow the prescribed dosage without exceeding it, unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Over Dose

If you accidentally take more than the prescribed dose of Nicardia XL 60 Tablet, you may experience more severe common side effects, such as headache, dizziness, and nausea. If this happens, seek advice from your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you realise that you've missed a dose of Nicardia XL 60 Tablet, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Don't take extra medicine to make up for the missed dose.

For managing hypertension, consider reducing your salt intake. Excessive salt can raise blood pressure levels.
If you have angina, try to maintain an active lifestyle. Regular mild to moderate physical activity can improve heart health. However, always consult your doctor for appropriate exercises for your condition.
