1. The haemodynamic and radionuclide effects of a new long-acting slow-calcium channel blocking agent, amlodipine, were evaluated in 32 patients with coronary artery disease. 2. Haemodynamic measurements in 24 patients were made at rest and 10 to 15 min after 20 mg i.v. amlodipine. Amlodipine significantly reduced systemic arterial blood pressure and vascular resistance index with an increased heart rate and augmented cardiac index. Cardiac stroke volume index rose and stroke work fell without change in pulmonary artery occluded pressure (PAOP). 3. The exercise effects were determined by comparison of measurements during 4 min of supine bicycle exercise at a fixed workload before and after drug treatment. During dynamic exercise, amlodipine reduced systemic arterial pressure and vascular resistance index. Exercise cardiac index, stroke volume index and heart rate were higher. The left ventricular filling pressure was significantly reduced. 4. Radionuclide parameters were studied in 16 patients at rest and on exercise; ejection fraction was unaltered following amlodipine. 5. Pre-therapy haemodynamic values correlated with response following amlodipine for resting mean blood pressure, systemic vascular resistance and exercise PAOP. 6. Thus, the immediate impact of amlodipine in stable coronary artery disease was to reduce left ventricular afterload and thereby improve cardiac pumping performance.
