User Reviews for nifedipine oral

I was on 1 60mg pill a day for 30 months Worked well at keeping my BP down However I was taken off due to severe swelling/inflamed gums (a knowned side effect)

it has worked well in combination with diovan.

I take 60mg. once a day for four years.i havent had any negative side effects.The medication so far has served me well.

i experienced, some swalling on feet

Prescibed to me to reduce contractions at 33 wks gestation. Caused severe swelling of legs and feet, redness of legs and tingling of feet.(only 2 days of use) Asking MD to change medications and other options. Very dissatisfied with this drug.

This drug has worked when nothing else has, however, I take it along with 4 additional BP drugs, maximum dosage with all of them. It also causes diarea but at least my BP is almost nornal and that is the first time I could say that in many years.

im taking nifedipine while im pregnant i want to know if there are any side effects on my baby

I've taken 2 other prescriptions prior to this one and so far this one does not give me any side affects so Im happy with that. Im just a little concerned at this time because I just found out I am pregnant now and don't know about the side affects on the baby.

I REALLY DON'T KNOW. I WAS ON THIS MEDICINE ALONG WITH INDOMETHCIN. FROM WHAT I READ ON HERE I SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN TAKING THESE TWO MEDICATIONS TOGETHER. I GUESS IT WORKED BUT MY BABY STILL PASSED AWAY AT 35 WKS OF PREGNANCY AND I DON'T KNOW WHY? SHE HAD A BLOOD CLOT IN HER UMBILICAL CORD.

This drug scared me silly when i took it. I began having moods swings and anxiety attacks, not to mention the throbbing headaches and disorientation. But my doctor changed my subscription now so i feel much better, though I still wonder if there was any serious damage done to me by it's use.

Checked my BP while on drug and no reduction was noted in my BP still elevated, I was extreme short of breath and extreme weakness while on it couldn't tolerate the symtoms for more than 3 days too bad of feeling.,now i need to tell my dr

previously taking Atenolol with moderately good results,but experienced E,D. Switched to Nifedipine to correct E.D. and first day of this medication, experienced extreme drop in blood pressure, and increase in pulse rate by 30 bpm. Constant fluctuation of B.P. and P.R. throughout day.

I am taking this along with indocin every 6 hrsto stop contractions. I am 28 wks pg w/twins. So far Ive had bad diareah and indoestion(even w.pepcid). Not sure why im on it if its for hibloodpressure.(i dont have) Makes me more tired, and jittery at same time.

what happend when using this med on a 6 mo gestation. Woman weight was 98 pounds with a dosage of 10mg capsules.

Initial reduction in Blood Pressure but did not bring it under control even with atenolol as a companion drug. Within 4 months the effect of Nefidipine was totally lost.

Fluid retention visible within three days. Large purple and brown blotches within 1 week. extreme diarrhea within 6 days!

This was the only medicine that brought my blood pressure down without side effects. I've been on it for years and am very happy with it.
