Abstract

The article presents the classification, mechanisms of action and clinical effects of calcium channel blockers application. We discussed the advantages dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers application in certain clinical situations. We demonstrated the clinical pharmacology in detail, the results of studies on the efficacy, safety and organ protection of dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers such as felodipine.
