We wish to emphasize another indication for use of nifedipine.Numerous therapeutic approaches to Raynaud's phenomenon have been used, with various results (2-5). We have evaluated the therapeutic effect of the calcium-channel blocking agent nifedipine in Raynaud's phenomenon. In each of the 16 patients included in our study (mean age, 38; 12 female, four male) digital vasospasm could be reproduced within 3 minutes by immersion of both hands in...References1.
