----------
SULAR (NISOLDIPINE)
EXTENDED RELEASE TABLETS
FOR ORAL USE
DESCRIPTION
SULAR (nisoldipine) is an extended release tablet dosage form of the
dihydropyridine
calcium channel blocker nisoldipine. Nisoldipine is
3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid, 1,4-
dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-nitrophenyl)-, methyl 2-methylpropyl ester,
C
H
N O , and
has the structural formula:
Nisoldipine is a yellow crystalline substance, practically insoluble
in water but soluble in
ethanol. It has a molecular weight of 388.4. SULAR tablets comprise
three layers: a top
barrier layer, a middle layer containing nisoldipine, and a bottom
barrier layer. The
erodible barrier layers and the hydrogel middle layer provide for the
controlled release of
the drug. SULAR tablets contain either 8.5, 17, or 34 mg of
nisoldipine for once-a-day
oral administration.
Inactive ingredients in the formulation include: Hypromellose,
hypromellose phthalate,
lactose, glyceryl behenate, povidone, magnesium stearate, silicon
dioxide, methacrylic
acid copolymer, and sodium lauryl sulfate. Inactive ingredients in the
film coating include:
polydextrose, titanium dioxide, hypromellose, polyethylene glycol,
iron oxide, and
carnauba wax. Additionally, the 17 mg formulation contains FD&C Yellow
#5.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Nisoldipine is a member of the dihydropyridine class of calcium
channel antagonists
(calcium ion antagonists or slow channel blockers) that inhibit the
transmembrane influx

of calcium into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. It
reversibly competes with
other dihydropyridines for binding to the calcium channel. Because the
contractile
process of vascular smooth muscle is dependent upon the movement of
extracellular
calcium into the muscle through specific ion channels, inhibition of
the calcium channel
results in dilation of the arterioles. _In vitro_ studies show that
the effects of nisoldipine on
contractile processes are selective, with
