Amlodipine-Associated Gingival Hyperplasia: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Gingival overgrowth can be adverse reaction of calcium channel blockers. Although nifedipine is commonly associated with this process, some case reports have also implicated amlodipine as a possible etiology. Here we present a case of a 59-yearold Pakistani female who developed gingival hyperplasia secondary to amlodipine use. We believe that the knowledge about amlodipine-associated gingival hyperplasia is necessary for dentists, so they can accurately diagnose this condition and provide appropriate management.
