About Procardia XL (nifedipine xl)

Uses and Benefits of Procardia XL (nifedipine xl)

Procardia XL (nifedipine xl) is indicated for the management of vasospastic angina, chronic stable angina, and high blood pressure. The medication helps relax blood vessels and improve blood flow. It treats vasospastic angina confirmed by one of the following: angina at rest with ST segment elevation, coronary artery spasm shown by ergonovine, or angiographic evidence of spasm.

Procardia XL can also be used when vasospasm is suspected but not confirmed, such as angina with changing exertion thresholds, unstable angina with signs of vasospasm, or angina that does not respond to nitrates or beta blockers. It is also used to manage chronic stable angina (effort-associated angina) in patients who still have symptoms after taking beta blockers or nitrates, or who cannot take those medications.

The medication may reduce how often angina occurs and helps patients exercise longer, but long-term safety is still under study. Procardia XL is also indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure. It may be used alone or with other blood pressure medicines.

Ingredients in Procardia XL (nifedipine xl)

The active ingredient is nifedipine. Inactive ingredients include cellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, polyethylene glycol, polyethylene oxide, red ferric oxide, sodium chloride, and titanium dioxide.

How to Take Procardia XL (nifedipine xl)?

Follow your doctor’s prescription exactly.

Take the medication once daily, starting with 30 or 60 mg. Swallow the tablets whole. Do not crush, chew, or divide the tablets. Your doctor may adjust the dosage based on your needs, typically increasing the dose every 7-14 days to monitor your response and blood pressure.

For patients switching from Procardia capsules, the equivalent total daily dose of Procardia XL should be used (e.g., 30 mg t.i.d. of Procardia capsules can be changed to 90 mg once daily of Procardia XL). Your doctor may adjust the dose up or down as necessary. Experience with doses above 90 mg in angina patients is limited, so higher doses should only be used with caution.

If you need to stop taking the medication, your doctor will gradually reduce the dose to avoid sudden effects. No “rebound effect” has been observed, but close supervision is important. You may take sublingual nitroglycerin as needed for acute angina, especially during nifedipine titration. Discuss with your doctor before using the medication with other antianginal medications, such as beta blockers or long-acting nitrates.

Who Should Not Take Procardia XL (nifedipine xl)?

Do not use Procardia XL (nifedipine xl) if you are allergic to nifedipine or any other ingredients in the tablet. If you are unsure about the ingredients, consult the packaging for more information. If you experience any signs of an allergic reaction, such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing, contact your doctor immediately.

Safety Precautions for Procardia XL (nifedipine xl)

Before you take Procardia XL, tell your healthcare provider if you:

• have low blood pressure (hypotension) or are already taking medications that lower blood pressure.
• have or have had heart conditions, such as congestive heart failure.
• are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
• The medication may cause mild to moderate peripheral edema (swelling), especially at higher doses. This swelling is localized and not related to general fluid retention or left ventricular dysfunction.
• If you have heart failure with your angina or hypertension, it’s important to distinguish this from swelling caused by heart issues.

The medication should be swallowed whole and not chewed, divided, or crushed. Occasionally, you may notice something that looks like a tablet in your stool.

This is the empty tablet shell that your body eliminates after it has slowly released the medication. Tell your doctor if you notice any unusual effects during treatment. The medication should only be used during pregnancy if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.

The safety and effectiveness of Procardia XL in children have not been established.
