Function of Lacidipine
Lacidipine can be used to treat high blood pressure. This product is a specific, potent and long-lasting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, which mainly selectively blocks the calcium channel of vascular smooth muscle, dilates the surrounding arteries, reduces peripheral vascular resistance, reduces cardiac afterload, and lowers blood pressure.
