Diltiazem
Diltiazem whose active ingredient is diltiazem, belongs to a group of medicines called calcium antagonists. Diltiazem is used for the treatment and prevention of angina, as it widens (dilates) the arteries of the heart, increasing the blood supply. Diltiazem also works by widening the other blood vessels in the body, so it is also used in the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). Diltiazem selectively limits calcium entry through the slow calcium channels of vascular smooth muscle and myocardial muscle fibers in a voltage-dependent manner.

Diltiazem whose active ingredient is diltiazem, belongs to a group of medicines called calcium antagonists. Diltiazem is used for the treatment and prevention of angina, as it widens (dilates) the arteries of the heart, increasing the blood supply.
Diltiazem belongs to calcium channel blockers at the muscle level, causing vasodilation, which is why they are used in medicine to treat hypertension, angina, and some heart rhythm disorders. Diltiazem is categorized as a class 3 antianginal drug and class 4 antiarrhythmic, causing minimal changes in the sympathetic nervous system.
Diltiazem selectively limits calcium entry through the slow calcium channels of vascular smooth muscle and myocardial muscle fibers in a voltage-dependent manner. Through this mechanism, diltiazem reduces the intracellular calcium concentration in the contractile protein. Diltiazem is considered the reference substance for class III calcium channel blockers.
This high blood pressure treatment medication is a calcium channel blocker that is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) or angina (chest pain). Diltiazem is used to treat certain heart rhythm disorders, such as atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, or dangerously fast heartbeat (tachycardia).
Always use this blood pressure medicine exactly as your doctor has told you. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.
The diltiazem pill is administered orally. Your doctor will tell you how many tablets to take each day.
The recommended dose is:
Adults
Angina pectoris: the starting dose is 1 tablet every 12 hours. Your doctor will gradually increase your dose until you get the optimal response. The maximum dose is 4 tablets every 12 hours (480 mg/day).
High blood pressure: the initial dose is 1 tablet every 12 or 8 hours. Your doctor will gradually increase your dose until you get the optimal response. The maximum dose is 4 tablets every 12 hours (480 mg/day).
Elderly patients, patients with renal or hepatic impairment
Initial dose adjustment should be done with caution.
All dosage modifications and dosage control will be performed under medical supervision.
