use of nicardipine administered as an IV bolus dose in the emergency department (ED) for hypertensive emergencies involving acute ische-mic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. A literature review follows along with recommendations for consideration for IV bolus dosing of nicardipine in the ED. Overall, administration of nicardipine as an IV
by MP Curran 2024 Cited by 76The pharmacokinetics of a continuous infusion of IV nicardipine or a bolus dose of IV nicardipine were linear in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.
The total daily dose of immediate release nicardipine (CARDENE) may not be a useful guide to judging the effective dose of CARDENE SR. Patients currently receiving immediate release nicardipine may be titrated with CARDENE SR starting at their current total daily dose of immediate release nicardipine and then reexamined to assess the adequacy

by SY Kim Cited by 9This study evaluated the effectiveness of nicardipine for each Fisher grade, for different dose of continuous nicardipine infusion, and for
Nicardipine IV Dose 0.5 mg/hour if using Nicardipine 20 mg orally every 8 hours IV Dose 1.2 mg/hour if using Nicardipine 30 mg orally every 8
Patients were randomized into 1 of 4 nicardipine dose groups: Group 1, nicardipine 0.25 mg; Group 2, nicardipine 0.50 mg; Group 3, nicardipine 1.00 mg; and Group 4, nicardipine 2.00 mg until data were obtained for 10 patients in each dose group. Nicardipine was administered as an IV bolus by rapid injection (over 5 s) directly into the right
There was no significant difference in effectiveness of nicardipine within subgroups of Fisher grade and infusion dosage. It was found that higher dose of nicardipine injection with higher SBP is more effective in controlling blood pressure. Nicardipine also seems to be safe except for very few unsevere complications.
