[PO2 and PCO2 after nifedipine administered by the sublingual route in hypertensive patients (author's transl)].

The Authors have examined the PO2 and PCO2 of peripheral arterial blood in 10 hypertensive subjects before and after 20 mg of nifedipine administered by sublingual route. A PaO2 decrease and a light increase of PaCO2 were observed; this pattern, if considered together with the increase of CO2 and the decrease of pulmonary resistance, may be attributed to a greater perfusion of those districts having a low V/Q ratio.
