Hypertension, chronic:

Note: For patients who warrant combination therapy (BP >20/10 mm Hg above goal or suboptimal response to initial monotherapy), may use in combination with another appropriate agent (eg, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, angiotensin II receptor blocker, thiazide diuretic) (Ref).

Sular (Geomatrix delivery system): Oral: Initial: 17 mg once daily; evaluate response after ~2 to 4 weeks and titrate dose as needed by 8.5 mg/dose up to 34 mg once daily; antihypertensive effect attenuates with higher doses and adverse effects may become more prominent; if additional BP control is needed, consider combination therapy. Patients with severe asymptomatic hypertension and no signs of acute end organ damage should be evaluated for medication titration within 1 week (Ref).

Nisoldipine ER tablet (original formulation): Oral: Initial: 20 mg once daily; evaluate response after ~2 to 4 weeks and titrate dose as needed by 10 mg/dose up to 40 mg once daily; antihypertensive effect attenuates with higher doses and adverse effects may become more prominent; if additional BP control is needed, consider combination therapy. Patients with severe asymptomatic hypertension and no signs of acute end organ damage should be evaluated for medication titration within 1 week (Ref).

Warnings/Precautions

Concerns related to adverse effects:

• Angina/MI: Increased angina and/or MI has occurred with initiation or dosage titration of dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. Reflex tachycardia may occur resulting in angina and/or MI in patients with obstructive coronary disease, especially in the absence of concurrent beta-blockade.

• Hypotension/syncope: Symptomatic hypotension with or without syncope can rarely occur; blood pressure must be lowered at a rate appropriate for the patient's clinical condition. Monitor closely during initial dosing and with dosage adjustment.

• Peripheral edema: The most common side effect is peripheral edema; occurs within 2 to 3 weeks of starting therapy.

Disease-related concerns:

• Aortic stenosis: Use with caution in patients with severe aortic stenosis.

• Heart failure (HF): The ACC/AHA heart failure guidelines recommend to avoid use in patients with heart failure due to lack of benefit and/or worse outcomes with calcium channel blockers in general (FDA 2015).

• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with severe hepatic impairment; lower starting dose required.

• Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction: Use with caution in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction since reduction in afterload may worsen symptoms associated with this condition (AHA/ACC [Ommen 2024]).

Dosage form specific issues:

• Tartrazine: Some dosage forms contain tartrazine, which may cause allergic reactions in certain individuals (eg, aspirin hypersensitivity).

Special populations:

• Older adult: Use with caution in patients >65 years of age; lower starting dose recommended.

Food Interactions

Peak concentrations of nisoldipine may be significantly increased if taken with high-lipid foods; however, total exposure (AUC) may be reduced. Grapefruit juice has been shown to significantly increase the bioavailability of nisoldipine. Management: Take on an empty stomach 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. Avoid a high-fat diet. Avoid grapefruit products before and after dosing.

Reproductive Considerations

Medications considered acceptable for the treatment of chronic hypertension during pregnancy may generally be used in patients trying to conceive. Nisoldipine is not considered a preferred agent for use in pregnant patients; consider transitioning to a preferred agent in patients planning to become pregnant (ACC/AHA [Whelton 2018]; ACOG 2019; NICE 2019).

Pregnancy Considerations

Chronic maternal hypertension is associated with adverse events in the fetus/infant. Chronic maternal hypertension may increase the risk of birth defects, low birth weight, premature delivery, stillbirth, and neonatal death. Actual fetal/neonatal risks may be related to the duration and severity of maternal hypertension. Untreated chronic hypertension may also increase the risks of adverse maternal outcomes, including gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, delivery complications, stroke, and myocardial infarction (ACOG 2019).

Patients with preexisting hypertension may continue their medication during pregnancy unless contraindications exist (ESC [Regitz-Zagrosek 2018]). When treatment of hypertension is initiated during pregnancy, agents other than nisoldipine may be preferred (ACOG 2019; ESC [Cífková 2020]; ESC [Regitz-Zagrosek 2018], SOGC [Magee 2022]).

Breastfeeding Considerations

It is not known if nisoldipine is present in breast milk.

The manufacturer recommends a decision be made whether to discontinue breastfeeding or to discontinue the drug, considering the importance of treatment to the mother.

Dietary Considerations

Take on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal). Avoid grapefruit juice before and after dosing. Avoid grapefruit juice; avoid high-fat diet.

Monitoring Parameters

Blood pressure; heart rate; peripheral edema.

Mechanism of Action

As a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, structurally similar to nifedipine, nisoldipine impedes the movement of calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. Dihydropyridines are potent vasodilators and are not as likely to suppress cardiac contractility and slow cardiac conduction as other calcium antagonists such as verapamil and diltiazem; nisoldipine is 5-10 times as potent a vasodilator as nifedipine.

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Duration: >24 hours

Absorption: Well absorbed. Peak concentrations significantly increased with high-lipid meals; however, AUC is reduced.

Protein binding: >99%

Metabolism: Extensively hepatic; 1 active metabolite (10% of activity of parent); first-pass effect

Bioavailability: ~5%

Half-life elimination: 9 to 18 hours

Time to peak: 4 to 14 hours

Excretion: Urine (60% to 80% as inactive metabolites); feces

Pharmacokinetics: Additional Considerations (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Altered kidney function: Dosage adjustments are not needed in patients with mild to moderate renal function impairment.

Hepatic function impairment: Liver cirrhosis: Increased plasma concentrations. Use lower starting and maintenance doses.

Older adult: Higher nisoldipine plasma concentrations (Cmax and AUC) have been found in elderly patients.
