Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker used in the management of angina and hypertension. We report 3 cases of gingival overgrowth in adult dentate patients associated with chronic usage of this drug. Gingival changes occurred within 3 months of dosage and appeared to be compounded by the patient's existing periodontal condition. In all 3 patients, there was sequestration of amlodipine in their crevicular fluid. The significance of this finding in relation to the pathogenesis of this unwanted effect remains to be elucidated.
