Generic Sibelium 5mg 40 tabs, Nafluryl OR
Description Amlodipine, bepridil, diltiazem, felodipine, flunarizine,
isradipine, nicardipine, nifedipine, nimodipine, and verapamil belong to the
group of medicines called calcium channel blocking agents. Calcium channel
blocking agents affect the movement of calcium into the cells of the heart and
blood vessels.
As a result, they relax blood vessels and increase the supply of
blood and oxygen to the heart while reducing its workload. Some of the calcium
channel blocking agents are used to relieve and control angina pectoris (chest
pain).
Some are also used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). High
blood pressure adds to the workload of the heart and arteries. If it continues
for a long time, the heart and arteries may not function properly. This can
damage the blood vessels of the brain, heart, and kidneys, resulting in a
stroke, heart failure, or kidney failure. High blood pressure may also increase
the risk of heart attacks. These problems may be less likely to occur if blood
pressure is controlled. Flunarizine is used to prevent migraine headaches.
Nimodipine is used to prevent and treat problems caused by a burst blood vessel
around the brain (also known as a ruptured aneurysm or subarachnoid hemorrhage).
Other calcium channel blocking agents may also be used for these and other
conditions as determined by your doctor. Some commonly used brand names are: In
