Notification of approval of supplementary drug application

Nifedipine sustained release tablets (I) are used for the treatment of essential hypertension. They are calcium channel blocking drugs, which can block calcium ions from entering cells through the channels on the membrane of myocardium or vascular smooth muscle. By interfering with the internal flow of calcium ions, the level of intracellular calcium ions is reduced, thereby changing myocardial contractility and vascular tension, reducing systemic vascular tension and decreasing blood pressure.

The passing of the consistency evaluation of Nifedipine Sustained-release Tablets (I) (10mg) of Lukang Saite Company has enriched the company's cardiovascular and cerebrovascular product lines, further enhanced the company's competitiveness and demonstrated the company's R&D and quality control level, which is another significant achievement of Lukang Saite Company in improving the quality and efficacy consistency of generic drugs.
