title: Nifedipine and blood glucose in normal human volunteers.
abstract: The effect of nifedipine, a calcium antagonist on fasting blood glucose level, glucose tolerance, glucose-induced insulin and glucagon secretion was studied in healthy nondiabetic volunteers. Nifedipine 10mg twice daily for four weeks did not affect fasting blood glucose level, glucose tolerance, glucose-induced insulin and glucagon secretion.
