Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Nifedipine XL is a long-acting medication used to lower blood pressure. The investigators want to learn whether women who receive the study drug will experience fewer severe-range blood pressure readings, and therefore need fewer intravenous (IV) medications to safely lower blood pressure.
At the time of enrollment, patients will be randomized to either the study drug (oral Nifedipine XL 30mg) or identical placebo.
