Re:  Felodipine

Please be advised that the digital anomalies associated with felodipine is when it is used in "pregnancy".

We have absolutely no data on its use in breastfeeding mothers.  I doubt that it is a major problem, but we have good studies showing safety of other CCBs such as :  nifedipine, verapamil, nimodipine.  So why use this drug if the others are safer.
