Hi,
Yes, these medications may be taken safely. Both formulations of nicardia retard and nifelat retard contain the same medicine nifedipine (a calcium channel blocker) commonly prescribed to treat high blood pressure. So, nicardia retard may be taken safely with enalapril if nifelat retard is not available.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
