Calcium Antagnosits in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Stroke 36:1816-1817, Rinkel,G.J.E.,et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The evidence for the effectiveness of nimodipine is not beyond doubt, but given the potential benefits and modest risks of this treatment, against the background of a devastating natural history, oral nimodipine (60 mg every 4 h) is currently indicated in patients with aneurismal SAH. Intravenous administration of calcium antagonists cannot be recommended for routine practice on the basis of the present evidence.
