Uses

Azelnidipine is used in the treatment of angina (heart-related chest pain), hypertension (high blood pressure), arrhythmia, hypertensive emergency, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and anal fissure.

How it Works

How Azelnidipine works Azelnidipine is a calcium channel blocker that regulates blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and reducing pressure on them. This action makes it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body, thereby normalizing blood pressure in patients with hypertension.
