OEL Fastrac Catalog

Felodipine is a long-acting calcium channel blocker used to for the treatment mild to moderate essential hypertension and prophylaxis of chronic stable angina pectoris. Felodipine belongs to the dihydropyridine class of calcium channel blockers (CCBs), the most widely used class of CCBs. Felodipine is a vascular selective calcium antagonist which lowers arterial blood pressure by decreasing systemic vascular resistance. Due to the high degree of selectivity for smooth muscle in the arterioles, felodipine in therapeutic doses has no direct effect on cardiac contractility or conduction. Because there is no effect on venous smooth muscle or adrenergic vasomotor control, felodipine is not associated with orthostatic hypotension. Felodipine possesses a mild natriuretic/diuretic effect, and fluid retention does not occur.

Affygility Solutions has an occupational exposure limit (OEL) and control band assignment for this active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). This monograph also contains the acceptable daily exposure (ADE) value.
