The dropper for Nifedicor has been modified, dispensing a different amount of the active ingredient than the previous formulation, with a potential risk of medication errors. With the new dropper, each drop now contains 1 mg of nifedipine, twice the amount of the previous formulation. Consequently, to obtain the same dose as previously indicated, half the number of drops must be administered.

Prescribing physicians are advised to pay attention to the new dosing information reported in the Summary of Product Characteristics for each indication.
