Are there any serious side-effects of Nilvadipine?
Nilvadipine has been used for the treatment of high blood pressure for over 10 years and has a very good safety profile. The main side effect, which is of concern to us in this trial, is that it may lower subjects’ blood pressure, and we have established a protocol to monitor for this closely. Nilvadipine can also cause headache, flushing, palpitations and swelling of the legs infrequently. 12.
