Elgodipine Hydrochloride is a calcium channel blocker of the dihydropyridine class, mainly used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and potentially angina pectoris. It works by selectively inhibiting the L-type calcium channels in vascular smooth muscle, leading to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), which reduces peripheral vascular resistance and thereby lowers blood pressure. It is grouped under the following drug class(es): Vasodilating agents. The directory classifies it as a discontinued API with a synthetic source/manufacturing origin. Other names for this substance include Elgodipine HCl and elgodipine hydrochloride [mi]. Its PubChem CID is 3078492.
