CONCLUSION
Our present study compared the efficacy and safety of oral Nifedipine and IV Labetalol in reaching the therapeutic goal. From the study, it is concluded that both oral Nifedipine and IV Labetalol are effective, safe and well tolerated, however, oral Nifedipine may be preferable because it is less cumbersome with oral administration, flat dose schedule and controls hypertension more rapidly with fewer doses.
