NIFEDIP RT 20 
Nifedipine is a medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain types of chest pain (angina). It belongs to the class of drugs called calcium channel blockers.

Here are some key points about nifedipine 20mg:

Dosage: Nifedipine is available in various strengths, including 20mg tablets. The dosage and frequency of administration will depend on the specific condition being treated and the individual's response to the medication. The usual starting dose for hypertension is often 20mg, taken orally two or three times a day.

Indications: NIFEDIP RT 20  is commonly prescribed for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and stable angina (chest pain caused by inadequate blood flow to the heart muscle). It may also be used off-label for other conditions as determined by a healthcare professional.

Mechanism of Action: Nifedipine works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, which helps to lower blood pressure and improve blood flow to the heart muscle. It does this by blocking the influx of calcium ions into the smooth muscle cells of the blood vessels, leading to vasodilation.

Precautions and Side Effects: Like any medication, nifedipine can cause side effects. Common side effects may include headache, flushing, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, ankle swelling, and constipation. Some people may experience more serious side effects, such as low blood pressure, allergic reactions, or liver problems. It's important to consult a healthcare professional and discuss your medical history and any other medications you are taking before starting nifedipine.

Drug Interactions: NIFEDIP RT 20  may interact with other medications, including certain antibiotics, antifungal drugs, HIV medications, and grapefruit juice. These interactions can affect the effectiveness of the medication or increase the risk of side effects. It's crucial to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications, supplements, and herbal products you are using.
