Product Overview

About ВЕРАПАМІЛУ ГІДРОХЛОРИД

ВЕРАПАМІЛУ ГІДРОХЛОРИД is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient Verapamil, a calcium channel blocker used to treat various cardiovascular conditions. It works by relaxing blood vessels and reducing the heart's workload, thereby lowering blood pressure and improving blood flow.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) to prevent cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes.
• Management of angina pectoris (chest pain) caused by coronary artery disease.
• Suppression of certain types of arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms), including supraventricular tachycardia.

Active Ingredient & Action

Verapamil, the active ingredient in ВЕРАПАМІЛУ ГІДРОХЛОРИД, belongs to a class of medications known as calcium channel blockers. It works by inhibiting the influx of calcium ions into cardiac and smooth muscle cells, thereby reducing the heart's contractility and vascular resistance. This leads to a decrease in blood pressure and an improvement in myocardial oxygen supply.

Important Notes

ВЕРАПАМІЛУ ГІДРОХЛОРИД should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. It may interact with other medications, including beta-blockers, and can cause side effects such as dizziness, headache, and edema. Patients with certain medical conditions, such as heart failure or atrioventricular block, should use this medication with caution. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and cardiac function is recommended during treatment.
