Biochem/physiol Actions

Lercanidipine hydrochloride is a L-type (Cav1.2b) vascular channel antagonist; L-type (Cav1.2a) cardiac channel agonist voltage-dependent and highly lipophylic compound, which exhibits a slower onset and longer duration of action than other calcium channel antagonists; an antihypertensive agent in patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension; more vasoselective than lacidipine and amlodipine.
Lercanidipine hydrochloride is a L-type (Cav1.2b) vascular channel antagonist; L-type (Cav1.2a) cardiac channel agonist.
