What Is Plendil?
Plendil (felodipine) is a prescription medication used to manage hypertension (high blood pressure). It works by relaxing and widening blood vessels so the heart does not have to work as hard to pump blood. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, most patients can achieve better blood pressure control and reduce their risk of serious cardiovascular events.

Is Online Plendil Treatment Right for You?
Plendil (felodipine) may be appropriate for adults who have been diagnosed with hypertension and need a calcium channel blocker as part of their treatment plan. It is commonly prescribed for patients who have not reached their blood pressure goal with lifestyle changes alone or who require add-on therapy alongside other antihypertensives.
Because blood pressure control involves the cardiovascular system, our physicians will review your current readings, heart history, kidney function, and any other medications you take that could interact with felodipine. Patients who are pregnant or have a history of severe heart failure or significant narrowing of the aorta may not be candidates for this medication.

Frequently asked questions
Plendil (felodipine) is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It lowers blood pressure by relaxing and widening the walls of small arteries, which reduces the resistance the heart must pump against.
The typical starting dose is 5 mg once daily. Depending on your blood pressure response and tolerability, a physician may adjust it to 2.5 mg or increase it to a maximum of 10 mg per day.
No. Plendil is an extended-release tablet and must be swallowed whole. Crushing, chewing, or splitting it can cause too much felodipine to be released at once, raising the risk of side effects like a sudden drop in blood pressure.
The most frequently reported side effects include ankle swelling (peripheral edema), flushing, headache, and dizziness. These are often mild and may improve over time. Contact your physician if side effects are severe or persistent.
Yes. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice can significantly increase felodipine blood levels and should be avoided. Felodipine may also interact with CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers such as certain antifungals, antibiotics, and anticonvulsants. Always share your full medication list with your physician.
Plendil is generally not recommended for patients with known hypersensitivity to felodipine or other dihydropyridines, those with severe aortic stenosis, or pregnant patients. Patients with certain heart conditions should discuss risks carefully with their physician.
