Verapamil hydrochloride

SKU: orb1226158

Description

Verapamil Hcl is an L-type calcium channel blocker of the phenylalkylamine class.(In Vitro):The EverFluor FL Verapamil (EFV) uptake by TR-iBRB2 cells is inhibited by cationic drugs, and inhibits by verapamil in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 98.0 μM.(In Vivo):Given orally Verapamil is useful for the prophylaxis of atrioventricular reentry tachycardia, and also in modulating the atrioventricular nodal response in atrial fibrillation.Verapamil is injected i.v. into a femoral vein prior to ischemia. Verapamil (1 mg/kg) significantly decreases the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias including premature ventricular contractions (PVC), ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) for 45-min coronary artery occlusion. Total arrhythmia scores are significantly increased when the heart is subjected to ischemia. Verapamil (1 mg/kg) significantly prevents the enhancement of total arrhythmia scores induced by ischemia.
