What is Cardizem?
Cardizem is an antihypertensive (blood pressure reducing) prescription drug for patients with high blood pressure (hypertension). Cardizem relaxes the muscles of the heart and dilates blood vessels.
The active ingredient in Cardizem, diltiazem, belongs to a class of popular blood pressure reducing medications called calcium channel blockers. These substances work by reducing the electrical signals in the heart causing it to beat with less force. Calcium channel blockers also relax artery walls and so increase the width of the body's arteries. Both effects, when combined, lower blood pressure.
Cardizem is in tablet form, but Cardizem is taken as a capsule.
What are the side effects of Cardizem?
