List of Calcium Channel Blockers

Calcium channel blockers lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and reducing heart rate. Calcium increases the strength of contractions in the heart and blood vessels. Blocking its entry into smooth muscle tissue reduces this effect.  Examples of calcium channel blockers include:

Amlodipine besylate (Norvasc, Lotrel)
Clevidipine (Cleviprex)
Diltiazem hydrochloride (Cardizem CD, Cardizem SR, Dilacor XR, Tiazac)
Felodipine (Plendil)
Isradipine (DynaCirc, DynaCirc CR)
Nicardipine (Cardene SR)
Nifedipine (Adalat CC, Procardia XL)
Nimodipine (Nimotop, Nymalize)
Nisoldipine (Sular)
Verapamil hydrochloride (Calan SR, Isoptin SR, Verelan, Covera HS)
