  • Method of administering calcium channel blocking agents
    Patent number: 4504476
    Abstract: A method of potentiating the effect of a dihydropyridine derivative, such as nimodipine or nifedipine, by administering d-cis-diltiazem in an amount sufficient to inhibit calcium influx but insufficient to cause substantial decrease in contractility, and administering a dihydropyridine derivative in a submicromolar amount less than the dosage normally required for pharmacological effectiveness. A calcium channel blocking composition comprises a synergistic combination of d-cis-diltiazem and a dihydropyridine derivative.
