Abstract

Isradipine, a new calcium channel blocker, was evaluated in a clinical trial spanning one year. The results of 50 patients are presented. The systolic BP showed a reduction of 30mmHg from the initial to the final visit. The diastolic BP showed a reduction of 21mmHg from the initial to the final visit. A very benign side effect profile was encountered during the study. Overall, Isradipine has proved to be an effective and safe antihypertensive agent in mild to moderate essential hypertension.
