About this item
Nifecard XL is designed for once-daily dosing. The "XL" technology ensures that the blood pressure does not drop too suddenly, which is a common issue with standard nifedipine tablets. Instead, it maintains a consistent level of the drug in your system, reducing the workload on your heart and making it easier for blood to flow through your arteries.
Dosage of Nifecard XL 30mg This is a Prescription-Only Medicine (POM). Take exactly as directed by your physician.
- Typical Dose: One 30mg tablet taken once daily.
- Adjustments: Your doctor may increase the dose gradually depending on your blood pressure response.
Proper Administration
- Swallow Whole: Do NOT crush, chew, or break the tablet. The XL mechanism depends on the tablet remaining intact. If broken, the entire 24-hour dose will be released at once, which can be dangerous.
+1 - Timing: Take your tablet at the same time every day, preferably in the morning.
- With or Without Food: Can be taken with or without food, but be consistent.
- The "Ghost" Tablet: Do not be alarmed if you see what looks like a whole tablet in your stool. This is the empty "shell" of the XL delivery system and is normal.
How to Store and Dispose of Nifecard XL 30mg
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C. Protect from light and moisture.
- Disposal: Keep out of reach of children. Return unused or expired medication to a pharmacy for safe disposal.
Quick Tips for Nifecard XL 30mg
- Avoid Grapefruit: Do NOT drink grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit while taking Nifedipine. It can significantly increase the level of the drug in your blood to unsafe levels.
- Rise Slowly: To avoid dizziness or fainting, move slowly when standing up from a sitting or lying position.
- Consistency: Even if you feel well, continue taking the medication. Hypertension often has no symptoms.
Safety and Precautions
Contraindications of Nifecard XL 30mg
- Heart Attack: Do NOT start this medication during or within a month of a heart attack.
- Unstable Angina: Not for use in sudden, severe chest pain attacks.
- Pregnancy: Generally avoided in pregnancy (especially before 20 weeks). Consult your specialist.
Side Effects of Nifecard XL 30mg
- Common: Ankle swelling (edema), headache, flushing (redness of the face), and dizziness.
- Less Common: Constipation, palpitations (fast heartbeat), or fatigue.
- Action: If you experience severe chest pain, a rapid/irregular heartbeat, or a severe skin rash, contact your doctor immediately.
Precautions and Warnings
- Liver Health: Use with caution if you have liver impairment, as the drug may accumulate in your system.
- Blood Pressure Monitoring: Regularly check your blood pressure at home and keep a log for your doctor.
- Surgery: Tell your surgeon or dentist that you are taking Nifedipine if you are scheduled for a procedure.
- Pack Size: Usually 30 tablets (1 month supply).
- Form: Extended-Release Oral Tablet.
- Active Ingredient: Nifedipine 30mg.
