Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before making any changes to your Diltiazem dosage or schedule. They can provide personalized guidance based on your specific health needs and medical history.
Diltiazem CD Cap 180mg 24hr is a sustained-release formulation, meaning it releases medication slowly over 24 hours. This provides consistent blood levels of the drug, minimizing fluctuations and potentially reducing side effects. Remember to swallow the capsule whole; crushing or chewing it can alter the release profile and affect its efficacy.
Common side effects can include headache, dizziness, and nausea. If you experience significant or persistent side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure is usually recommended while taking Diltiazem. Your doctor will determine the frequency of these check-ups.
