Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.drugs.com/history/lercanidipine.html | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27794423

Lercanidipine is antihypertensive drugs which acts by blocking L-type calcium channels, allowing relaxation and opening of blood vessels. Lercanidipine exists as a racemate, with anti-hypertensive activity residing primarily in S-enantiomer. NDA for lercanidipine was submitted to FDA in 2002 by Forest Laboratories, but FDA refused to approve the drug, and lercanidipine is not marketed in USA. Lercanidipine is also investigated in preclinical models of epilepsy and ischemic stroke.

Sample Use Guides

The recommended dosage is 10 mg orally once a day at least 15 minutes before meals; the dose may be increased to 20 mg depending on the individual patient's response. In preclinical models lercanidipine is administered intraperitoneally.
Route of Administration: Other
Lercanidipine demonstrated vasodilation effect in isolated vessel ring obtained from human arteria mammaria preparation (EC50 approx. 1 nM). Isolated vessel rings were precontracted by 0.3 mol/L prostaglandin F2.
