Zanidip is a prescription medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults. It contains the active ingredient lercanidipine, which belongs to a class of medicines called dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers.
Zanidip works by blocking the entry of calcium ions into the muscle cells that make up the walls of blood vessels. This results in the relaxation and widening of the blood vessels, which then allows blood to flow more easily and effectively through them. This in turn lowers blood pressure, which can help to reduce the strain on the heart and lower the risk of associated complications.
Lercanidipine tablets are available in two strengths, 10 mg, and 20 mg. The tablets should be swallowed whole with water, if possible. You should take the tablets as directed by your doctor, with a drink of water and approximately 30 minutes before a meal, on an empty stomach. This is because fatty foods can increase the amount of lercanidipine that your body absorbs, which may lead to side effects.
If you miss to take your lercanidipine tablet at the usual time, take it 30 minutes before your next meal. If you do not remember until the following day, skip the missed dose and do not take two doses together to make up for it.
Zanidip (Lercanidipine) is available in the following forms and strength:
If you miss a dose of Zanidip, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Zanidip is not recommended for use in children under the age of 18.
Zanidip should start working within a few hours of taking the first dose. However, it may take several weeks for the full effects of the medication to be seen.
If you experience any side effects from Zanidip, speak to your doctor or pharmacist. They can help determine if the side effects are related to the medication or if there is another underlying issue.
