How It Works
Diltiazem is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels by reducing calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle. It also decreases heart rate and myocardial oxygen demand, helping lower blood pressure and prevent angina.
Directions for Use
Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily. Swallow the controlled-release capsule whole; do not crush or chew. Can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time each day.
Use with caution in low blood pressure, heart failure, conduction disorders (AV block), slow heart rate, and liver impairment. Do not stop suddenly without medical advice.
