About Calcium Channel Blockers.

Calcium channel blockers are a recognized class of cardiovascular medications that inhibit the transmembrane influx of calcium ions into cardiac muscle and vascular smooth muscle through voltage-gated L-type calcium channels.

By decreasing intracellular calcium availability, they promote vascular smooth muscle relaxation and arterial vasodilation, while non-dihydropyridine subclasses also depress sinoatrial node automaticity and delay atrioventricular conduction.

Therapeutically, this pharmacologic class is widely indicated for the management of hypertension, chronic stable and vasospastic angina pectoris, and certain supraventricular arrhythmias.
