Can nifedipine cause bronchospasm in patients with asthma and what are the mechanisms or risk factors involved in triggering this respiratory response?
Nifedipine can induce bronchospasm, especially in asthma patients hypersensitive to calcium channel blockers due to alterations in calcium ion regulation in smooth muscle.
