Prescal Tablets contain 2.5 mg of the active ingredient isradipine.

Prescal is used to treat high blood pressure.

You think you may be allergic to isradipine, or other similar calcium
channel blockers (e.g. amlodipine, felodipine, lacidipine,
nicardipine,
nifedipine), or to any of the other ingredients of Prescal. (These are
listed
in Section 6.)
-
You have recently (within the last month) had a heart attack.

You suffer from heart, heart valve or blood vessel disorders other
than
