Re: Nifedipine and PTLFrom: DoctorJoe@aol.comFri Mar 29 07:54:32 1996
<<Hence it appears from current published data that the side-effect profile of nifedipine is less significant than that of betamimetics. >> Comments, regarding a paucity of published reports on this, are true. However, whether the statement is true or not may be questioned. Those of us who have (either alone or in our practice groups) used both agents can give some insight. My own experience is that the slight shakiness one gets acutely after a dose of terbutaline is not near as significant as a fainting spell because of hypotension after nifedipine. I much prefer a group of patients who have a little nervousness generally, than a group of patients in which one or two of them fall down on occasion. Joe P.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
