Lowest price diltiazem (generic Cardizem) for high blood pressure.

Diltiazem is a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure and angina.

Angina is characterized by intense pain in the chest, back, and shoulders caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. More than 3 million Americans experience angina each year. While not life-threatening on its own accord, angina often portends a heart attack or stroke and is a sign that your body needs cardiovascular care.

High blood pressure is an equally serious, though far more common, condition in which blood flows too forcefully through vessels, placing you at greater risk of heart attack or stroke. Nearly half of all Americans suffer from elevated blood pressure, a condition often termed the “silent killer,” as it presents relatively few physical symptoms.

Like many blood pressure drugs, diltiazem is most effective when taken alongside changes to your lifestyle - such as improving your diet, increasing your exercise, and quitting smoking.

Diltiazem is used to treat angina and high blood pressure. It is most often prescribed to treat chronic stable angina. Like all forms of angina, this condition occurs when the heart does not receive sufficient blood to keep it oxygenated, leading to intense pain in the chest. Chronic stable angina, though, usually causes pain in predictable patterns that can be managed and mitigated with proper medication.

Diltiazem is also often prescribed to treat high blood pressure.

While there are a number of common side effects associated with diltiazem, it is important to remember that your doctor prescribed this medication because its ability to manage your chronic angina outweighs any adverse side effects it may cause.

Some common side effects you may experience include:

• Edema
• Headache
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Rash
• Asthenia

If these side effects become severe or do not go away, contact your doctor.
