Description
NIFEDI-DENK 20mg Retard Tablets contain nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina pectoris. Nifedipine works by relaxing blood vessels, which allows blood to flow more easily and reduces the workload on the heart. This medication is particularly effective for managing chronic stable angina and vasospastic angina.
