Nifedipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. Its main uses are as an antianginal (An antianginal is any drug used in the treatment of angina pectoris, a symptom of ischaemic heart disease) and antihypertensive, although a large number of other indications have recently been found for this agent, such as Raynaud's phenomenon, premature labor, and painful spasms of the esophagus in cancer and tetanus patients. It is also commonly used for the small subset of pulmonary hypertension patients whose symptoms respond to calcium channel blockers.
