How it works

• Cilnidipine is a type of dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker.
• It relaxes the muscles in the walls of blood vessels, causing them to widen and allowing blood to flow through them more freely.
• This process lowers blood pressure and reduces the workload on the heart.
• It also inhibits calcium channels in the sympathetic nerve endings, which can suppress the increase in heart rate sometimes caused by other calcium channel blockers.
