Adalat (Nifedipine)

Adalat works by interfering with the normal action of calcium in blood vessel constriction (relaxes the blood vessels) and heart muscle contraction (heart may beat with less force and pump out less blood) and nerve conduction in the heart (heart may beat more slowly and more regularly).

Adalat is is used to lower hypertension (high blood pressure) and to treat angina (chest pain).
