Combination of atenolol, a selective beta-1 adrenergic blocker, and nifedipine, a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. Used for the management of hypertension and angina pectoris. The drug is approved and used in clinical practice today, particularly when single-agent therapy is insufficient.
Pharmacokinetics
No direct pharmacokinetic studies or population PK models published for the fixed dose combination of atenolol and nifedipine (ATC C07FB03) were found. Individual pharmacokinetics for each agent are well-characterized, but specific combination PK parameters are not reported in the literature for healthy or patient populations.
