چکیده
Nifedipine produced significant hyperglycemia but rise' in blood sugar was not dose dependent (Table I). Nifedipine also increased blood sugar in rats rendered hyperglycemic by alloxon (193 ± lO.7 and 224 ± 9.3 mg%, n = 6, p < 0.05). Nifedipine Sr. No. of Dose of No. animals nefedipine mglkg (150 mgfkg) was injected sc 2 days prior to sacrificing animals. After 3 weeks of nifedipine treatment blood was collected from renal artery after 24 hours fasting under ether anaesthesia for estimation of blood sugar (5).
