List of reimbursed drugs, is an important part of Service Packages covering the Fund of Compulsory Health Care Insurances for the population. The list of reimbursable drugs aims at improving the quality of service for all patients, particularly for people in need. In this regard, through the new list of drugs, FCHC aims at increasing the attention toward categories such as retirees and patients suffering from serious illnesses.
In compiling the list of drugs there are some scientific criteria which have been taken into consideration, by giving priority to drugs used for severe diseases; diseases of high risk for life; diseases that cause disability; diseases that risk of being spread into the society; diseases that cause much suffering as well as chronic illnesses requiring prolonged treatment.

Nifedipine is a dihydropyridine calcium-channel blocker.
It inhibits the calcium ions flow through the cellular membrane. Nifedipine decreases the myocardial oxygen demand. It is a peripheral and coronary vasodilator, but, unlike the other calcium-channel blockers verapamil or diltiazem, has little or no effect on cardiac conduction and negative inotropic activity is rarely seen at therapeutic doses.
Nifedipine has no antiarrhythmic activity.
It widens the main coronary arteries and coronary arterioles, both in normal region but also in ischemic ones and is a strong inhibitor to their spasms. It lowers blood pressure at rest and at a certain level of stress. This is realized by widening peripheral arterioles and reducing total peripheral resistance.
Nifedipine 10 mg sugar-coated tablet is used in:
Nifedipine sugar-coated tablets can increase the risk of serious heart problems in patients with hypertension or angina. Hence, Nifedipine sugar-coated tablets are only used in these patients if no other treatments are appropriate.

Nitrosorbit contains the active substance isosorbide dinitrate. The basic pharmacological effect of isosorbide dinitrate, as all organic nitrates, is relaxing vascular smooth muscles as a result of intracellular cyclic guanosine monophosphate production inducement. Arterioles relaxation reduces systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure.

Siprolip is a drug used to reduce high blood lipids (cholesterol) from the class of cholesterol synthesis enzyme inhibitor. The active substance of Siprolip, simvastatin, reduces cholesterol production in the liver. For simvastatin has been shown that in patients at high risk for coronary heart disease, it reduces the risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke.
Siprolip is used:
