Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO)
Calcium channel blockers were introduced in the sixties. They are
mainly used in coronary heart disease, as antiarrhythmic agents and also in the
treatment of hypertension. The long-acting calcium channel blockers like
verapamil and diltiazem, due to their longer half-life time, have a somewhat
different therapeutic and safety profile from the short-acting agents discussed
above. Nifedipine and verapamil are listed in the WHO Model List of Essential
Drugs.
