Description
Masdipine SR 20mg Tablets – Nifedipine Sustained Release for Hypertension and Angina
Masdipine SR 20mg Tablets contain Nifedipine in a sustained-release formulation — a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker used to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (chest pain). It works by blocking calcium entry into blood vessel smooth muscle cells, causing vasodilation and reducing the heart's workload.
The SR formulation ensures a slow, steady release of Nifedipine throughout the day for consistent blood pressure control with once-daily dosing. It helps prevent serious cardiovascular complications including heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage caused by uncontrolled hypertension. Important warnings: Never crush or chew the sustained-release tablet — swallow whole to avoid dose dumping. Avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment (CYP3A4 interaction increases drug levels). Use strictly under medical supervision with a valid prescription.
Key Benefits
- Controls hypertension with once-daily sustained-release dosing.
- Reduces angina frequency by improving cardiac oxygen supply.
- Prevents cardiovascular complications (stroke, heart attack, kidney damage).
- Gentle vasodilation with less reflex tachycardia than immediate-release nifedipine.

FAQs
What is Masdipine SR 20mg used for?
It treats hypertension and angina by relaxing and widening blood vessels to improve blood flow and reduce cardiac workload.
Why must I not crush the tablet?
Crushing the sustained-release tablet releases the full dose at once (dose dumping), causing a dangerous sudden drop in blood pressure.
Can I drink grapefruit juice while taking this?
No — grapefruit inhibits CYP3A4 metabolism of Nifedipine, significantly increasing blood drug levels and the risk of side effects.
What are common side effects?
Mild headache, dizziness, flushing, or ankle swelling are common. These usually improve as your body adjusts.
Where can I buy Masdipine SR 20mg in Pakistan?
Authentic Masdipine SR 20mg Tablets are available at Derma.pk with nationwide delivery and prescription verification.
