Effects of long-term blood pressure control on left and right ventricular structure and function in hypertensive patients.

abstract：:BMY 20064 is a dihydropyridine Ca2+ entry blocker with potent and selective alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist properties. The drug was equal in potency to nifedipine as a Ca2+ entry blocker in depolarized smooth muscle preparations. It was less active than nifedipine in antagonizing Ca2+-induced contractions of isolated...
