Nimotop (Nimodipine)

General information

Nimotop is called a calcium channel blocker. It works by relaxing narrowed blood vessels in the brain near the area of bleeding so blood can flow more easily. This effect reduces brain damage. Nimotop is used to prevent brain damage caused by reduced blood flow to the brain resulting from aneurysm, a dilated or ruptured blood vessel in the brain. This medication may also be used to decrease problems due to stroke.

Nimotop is usually started as soon as possible after the start of bleeding in the brain, usually within 4 days. Do not take antacids for 2 hours before or after taking the drug.
