Diltiazem
Diltiazem is a medication used to treat conditions like high blood pressure and chest pain (angina). It works by relaxing the muscles of your blood vessels, which helps lower blood pressure and improves blood flow to the heart. This makes it easier for your heart to pump and reduces its workload. Diltiazem also helps prevent migraines and certain irregular heartbeats. It’s typically taken as a pill or injection under a doctor’s supervision. Like all medications, it may have side effects, so it’s important to use it as prescribed and report any unusual symptoms.
