Barnidipine(INN;also known asmepirodipine) is acalcium channel blockerwhich belongs to thedihydropyridine(DHP) group ofcalcium channel blockers.It is used in the treatment ofhypertension.[1]

Pharmacodynamics

[edit]

Barnidipine is a pure S,S isomer, a lipophilic 1,4-dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, which, like other compounds in the class, shows a high affinity for calcium channels, particularly the L-type slow channels of smooth muscle cells found in the vessel wall.[2]Calcium channel blocking drugs have the characteristic of interfering with the flow of calcium ions into the interior of cells through the slow channels of the plasma membrane.
