Gingival hyperplasia can occur as side effect of a number of medicines. For example anticonvulsants (phenytoin), immunosuppressive drugs (cyclosporine A) and calcium channel blockers (nifedipine and amlodipine). Kidney failure patients receiving kidney transplant are on immunosuppressive medicines so can have side effect of gingival hyperplasia.
