title: [The effect of Cordafen (nifedipine) on endocytosis and bactericidal activity of polymorphonuclear granulocytes in peripheral blood].
abstract: The study was performed in patients taking Cordafen Polfa 30 mg a day. Just after three days of its administration, impaired basal metabolism of polymorphonuclear granulocytes in NBT test was found. After seven days of Cordafen use was demonstrated.
