Diltiazem is used to treat high blood pressure and to control chest pain (angina). Diltiazem is in a class of medications called calcium-channel blockers. It works by relaxing the blood vessels so the heart does not have to pump as hard. It also increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart.Diltiazem comes as a tablet and an extended- or dual-release (long-acting) capsule to take by mouth. The tablet is usually taken three or four times a day with or without food. The capsule is usually taken one or two times a day. The extended-release capsule (Cardizem SR Dilacor XR Diltia XT) should be taken on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. The extended-release capsule (Tiazac) may be taken with or without food. The dual-release capsule (Cardizem CD) may be taken with food.Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take diltiazem exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.Swallow the capsules whole; do not split chew or crush them.Your doctor will probably start you on a low dose of diltiazem and gradually increase your dose.If taken regularly diltiazem controls chest pain but it does not stop chest pain once it starts. Your doctor may give you a different medication to take when you have chest pain.Diltiazem controls high blood pressure and chest pain (angina) but does not cure them. It may take up to 2 weeks before you feel the full benefit of diltiazem. Continue to take diltiazem even if you feel well. Do not stop taking diltiazem without talking to your doctor.Diltiazem is also used sometimes to treat Raynaud's syndrome.

Pharmacy: Dozens of patents for name-brand drugs are due to expire within the next 14 months, and generic drugs will replace some of the most popular and widely advertised drugs used today. For millions of people worldwide, this means switching from familiar brands like Lipitor to generic equivalents. How will this affect drug companies, and what will be the impact on people who depend on expensive prescription medication? Here, a brief guide: Which drugs are scheduled to go generic? Some real blockbusters. "In the next two years, six of the 10 top-selling drugs will lose their patents," says Chris Woolston in the Los Angeles Times. Lipitor, the world's best-selling drug, which is used to lower cholesterol, will be available as a generic in November of this year. Another best-seller, the blood thinner Plavix, will lose its patent in May 2012. Other well-known drugs with expiring patents include the arthritis treatment Enbrel, the anti-psychotic Zyprexa, as well as drugs for bipolar disorder, HIV, high cholesterol, and other conditions.
