    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Periodontology
    • Pharmacology

    Context:

    • Cardiovascular diseases are prevalent globally.
    • Calcium-antagonists are commonly prescribed for cardiovascular conditions.
    • Gingival hyperplasia is a known potential side effect of certain medications.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the incidence of gingival hyperplasia in patients treated with calcium-antagonists.
    • To describe the clinical and histological characteristics of drug-induced gingival hyperplasia.
    • To assess the relationship between calcium-antagonist therapy and gingival overgrowth.

    Summary:

    • Forty-four patients with cardiovascular pathology receiving calcium-antagonist treatment were studied.
    • The study evaluated the occurrence and clinical-histological features of gingival hyperplasia in this patient group.
    • Findings detail the presentation and characteristics of this adverse drug reaction.

    Impact:

    • Provides valuable data for clinicians managing cardiovascular patients on calcium-antagonists.
    • Enhances understanding of drug-induced gingival hyperplasia.
    • Informs patient counseling regarding potential side effects of cardiovascular medications.
