Nefidipine is a medication that belongs to a class called calcium channel blockers. It works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood around the body. This medication contains the active ingredient nefidipine, which helps in managing conditions like high blood pressure. Nefidipine is suitable for individuals with hypertension or other heart-related issues.

It is quick and efficient and cost is reasonable. For repeat prescriptions of a pretty low level drug it would be better still to allow more than one months worth of pills at a time.

Very fast and reliable service - I couldn't be happier. I needed a refill for my prescription but couldn't make it to my GP in time due to travel. The medication arrived 3-4 days after I requested a prescription, and it was processed over the weekend.Lovely service, and I'm sure I'll be back!
