Nifedipine is a prescription medication approved by the FDA in 1981 to treat high blood pressure and angina, also called chest pain. It can also be used off-label for Raynaud’s phenomenon and migraine prevention. It works by relaxing blood vessels to improve blood flow.
Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that inhibits calcium entry into the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels, causing vasodilation, which lowers blood pressure and reduces chest pain episodes.
Patients diagnosed with hypertension, angina, Raynaud’s phenomenon, or migraine prevention may be prescribed nifedipine after a medical evaluation by a licensed provider. It is not suitable for everyone; always consult a healthcare professional.
Through Klarity Health, you can connect with licensed healthcare providers for a virtual consultation. If appropriate, your provider will prescribe nifedipine and send the prescription electronically to your preferred pharmacy, often within 24 hours.
