Scientific Evidence:

Nifedipine, the active ingredient in Corinfar UNO, is a calcium channel blocker that works by relaxing blood vessels, thereby reducing blood pressure and improving blood flow to the heart. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of nifedipine in the management of hypertension and angina.

A randomized controlled trial published in the Journal of the American Medical Association showed that nifedipine effectively lowered blood pressure in patients with hypertension, with a good safety profile. Another study in the European Heart Journal highlighted the benefits of nifedipine in reducing the frequency of angina attacks and improving exercise tolerance in patients with stable angina.
