Diltiazem 90 mg CR Tabs
₹124.40
Diltiazem 90 mg CR (Controlled Release) tablets contain diltiazem hydrochloride, a calcium channel blocker medication used to treat high blood pressure, angina (chest pain), and certain types of irregular heartbeats.
Key Information
- Medication Class: Diltiazem is a non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It works by relaxing blood vessels and slowing the heart rate, which lowers blood pressure and the workload on the heart.
- Uses:
- Hypertension (high blood pressure).
- Angina pectoris (chronic stable angina and angina due to coronary artery spasms).
- Certain types of arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats).
- Formulation: The “CR” or “SR” (Sustained Release) or “ER” (Extended Release) designation means the medicine is released slowly into the body over time to provide a steady effect, often allowing for once-daily dosing.
Important Considerations
- Administration: The tablets should be swallowed whole; they should not be chewed, crushed, or broken, as this can release all the medication at once and increase the risk of side effects. It is best to take the medication at the same time each day.
- Do Not Stop Suddenly: Do not stop taking diltiazem without consulting your doctor first, as abruptly stopping the medication can worsen your condition or increase your blood pressure.
- Common Side Effects: Common side effects can include headache, dizziness, constipation, nausea, flushing, and swelling in the ankles or feet.
- Safety:
- It may cause dizziness or sleepiness, so caution is advised when driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you.
- Alcohol consumption should be avoided, as it may worsen side effects.
- Before starting treatment, inform your doctor about any pre-existing liver or kidney problems, very low blood pressure, or heart failure.
- It is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding; consult your doctor.
