General description

Diltiazem hydrochloride is used to treat cardiovascular diseases, such as angina and hypertension. It acts as an inhibitor to cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A). Diltiazem might be associated with maculopapular rashes, urticaria and pruritus.

Application

(+)-cis-Diltiazem hydrochloride has been used:
  • to study its effects on diffusion and release in monolithic dispersion matrix(26)
  • to study its neuroprotective effects in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) models(27)
  • as an antagonist against the Cav1.2 L-type calcium channels (LTCCs)(28)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Blocks slow, or L-type Ca2+ channels; regulates Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in neutrophils; stimulates 1,4-dihydropyridine binding to Ca2+ channels; coronary vasodilator.
