[The effect of Cordafen (nifedipine) on endocytosis and bactericidal activity of polymorphonuclear granulocytes in peripheral blood]
Abstract
The study was performed in patients taking Cordafen Polfa 30 mg a day. Just after three days of its administration, impaired basal metabolism of polymorphonuclear granulocytes in NBT test was found. After seven days of Cordafen use was demonstrated. Cordafen has no effect on oxygen metabolic activity in granulocytes stimulated by latex particles.
