Background: The observation that proteinuria is an important determinant of the progression of renal disease has prompted numerous studies on the effects of antihypertensive agents on protein excretion. Reports on the proteinuria effects of calcium-channel blockers are quite controversial. It has been suggested that the short-acting dihydropyridine calcium-channel blocker nifedipine increases protein excretion by interference with tubular protein reabsorption.
