Lack of a pharmacokinetic interaction between nifedipine and the beta-adrenoceptor blockers metoprolol and atenolol. 1984

M J Kendall, and D B Jack, and S J Laugher, and J Lobo, and S Rolf Smith

Nifedipine, metoprolol and atenolol were administered orally to young, healthy volunteers. Each drug was given alone and nifedipine was also given with both beta-adrenoceptor blockers. Each drug was given for 3 days immediately before the study days. Plasma and urine drug concentrations were measured and the relevant pharmacokinetic parameters calculated. No pharmacokinetic interaction between nifedipine and the beta-adrenoceptor blockers was revealed.
