What Is Adalat?
Adalat (nifedipine ER) is a prescription medication used to manage hypertension and chronic stable angina. It works by blocking calcium channels in the smooth muscle of blood vessel walls, causing the vessels to relax and widen, which lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart's workload. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, most people achieve meaningful blood pressure control and experience fewer anginal episodes.

Is Online Adalat Treatment Right for You?
Adalat may be appropriate for adults who have been diagnosed with hypertension or chronic stable angina and need a once-daily oral calcium channel blocker. A Doctronic physician will review your medical history, current medications, and blood pressure readings before issuing any prescription.
Because nifedipine ER affects the cardiovascular system, your provider will screen for conditions such as heart failure, significant aortic stenosis, or drug interactions that could make this medication unsuitable. Patients with a history of hypersensitivity to dihydropyridines or who are pregnant should inform their provider before starting treatment.

Frequently asked questions
Adalat (nifedipine ER) is FDA-approved for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and chronic stable angina. By relaxing the smooth muscle in artery walls, it lowers blood pressure and reduces the frequency and severity of angina episodes.
The extended-release formulation delivers nifedipine gradually over 24 hours, providing steadier blood levels and allowing once-daily dosing. Immediate-release nifedipine has a faster onset but shorter duration and is generally not recommended for routine hypertension management due to abrupt blood pressure changes.
Common side effects include peripheral edema (swelling of the ankles or feet), flushing, headache, dizziness, and fatigue. Most side effects are related to vasodilation and often improve after the first few weeks of treatment. Contact your doctor if side effects are severe or persistent.
Adalat is sometimes prescribed alongside other antihypertensive agents such as ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or diuretics. However, certain combinations can cause excessive blood pressure lowering. Always tell your Doctronic provider about all medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking.
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice can significantly increase nifedipine blood levels and should be avoided. Strong CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors (such as rifampin or certain antifungals) can also alter nifedipine levels. Your physician will review your full medication list before prescribing.
Many patients notice measurable reductions in blood pressure within the first week of starting Adalat. Full therapeutic effect at a given dose may take a few weeks. Regular home blood pressure monitoring is helpful so your provider can adjust the dose as needed.
