Benidipine

• Description:

  Benidipine is a potent and orally active calcium channel antagonist[1]. Benidipine shows anti-apoptosis effects in ischaemic/reperfused myocardial cells[2]. Benidipine increases the activity of endothelial cell-type nitric oxide synthase and improves coronary circulation in hypertensive rats[3].
