The nifedipine immediate-release formulation has been associated with reflex sympathetic nervous system activation leading to several adverse effects such as flushing, tachycardia, worsening myocardial ischemia, and cerebrovascular ischemia. Development of a modified-release formulation represents a challenge, particularly the development of a once-daily formulation. Therefore, these studies evaluated the pharmacokinetic profile of a new 30-mg Extended-Release Nifedipine Tablets in Mexican population. The formulation [ANHITEN-A®] was manufactured by Ultra Laboratorios S.A. de C.V. [Jalisco, Mexico] with number of batch 9JN134A and expiration date September 2021.
