Description


Verapamil is used for the treatment of the diseases of the cardiovascular system. It has an antianginal, antiarrhythmic and hypotensive action. The main pharmacological properties of the drug are conditioned by its ability to prevent the entry of the calcium ions to cardiomyocytes and smooth muscles of the vascular wall through the slow calcium channel of the membrane. The active components quickly neutralize the cause of the disease and improve the function of the cardiovascular system. They reduce a necessity of myocardium in oxygen by means of the reduction of myocardial contractility, and also cause a dilation of the coronary arteries and increase of the coronary blood flow. The antihypertensive action of Verapamil is connected with the reduction of the muscle tone of the peripheral arteries.

Also this drug can be used by the acute attacks of stenocardia, tachycardia, and hypertensive crisis. By the rapid relief of the acute symptom it is necessary to introduce the medication intravenously.
