Isradipine is a L-type calcium channel blocker, Isradipine has anti-atherosclerotic effects in animals and improves endothelium-mediated nitric oxide (NO)-dependent vasodilation in vitro. Additional studies indicate that Isradipine may provide a neuroprotective effect in a rat model of focal ischemia and that Isradipine produces a dose-dependent sparing of dopamine neuronal fibers and cell bodies.
