Calcium channel blockers are used to lower blood pressure to treat hypertension, PSVT, coronary artery disease, angina, and atrial fibrillation. They work by relaxing blood vessels allowing blood to flow easier to different parts of the body.
Calcium channel blockers are used to treat high blood pressure, angina (chest pain), and coronary artery disease. These medications work by relaxing the muscles of your heart and blood vessels, which helps to lower blood pressure and reduce chest pain. Calcium channel blockers come in different forms, including oral pills and liquids. Examples include amlodipine (Norvasc, Katerzia), diltiazem ER (Cardizem CD, Tiazac), and verapamil ER (Verelan).
