Study Summary

A significant number of pregnancies are complicated by hypertensive disorders. Hypertension often worsens in the postpartum period and many women need started on medications. Currently, recommended medications for blood pressure management in pregnant and postpartum women are limited, with labetalol and nifedipine ER being the most commonly used medications. While these medications are both effective, they are not without limitations. Amlodipine is a medication in the same class as nifedipine ER. It is a first-line antihypertensive in the general population. It tends to have less side effects than nifedipine ER. It has not been studied specifically in postpartum women. The purpose of this study is to determine if amlodipine is noninferior to nifedipine ER in managing hypertension in the postpartum period.
