RESUMO
Magnesium sulfate is commonly used in tocolytic regimens and as prophylaxis against seizures. Nifedipine may be used simultaneously in either situation. With the isolated perfused rat heart model (Sprague-Dawley rats), we investigated the effects of these agents on cardiac function. Whereas each agent alone depressed cardiac performance, the two drugs together had maximal depressive effects on the heart.
