Calan SR (active ingredient: verapamil) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Hypertension: Calan SR is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
  2. Chronic Stable Angina: It is indicated for the management of chronic stable angina.
  3. Supraventricular Tachyarrhythmias: Calan SR is used to treat certain types of rapid heart rhythms originating above the ventricles, such as paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation.

Calan SR belongs to a class of drugs known as calcium channel blockers, which work by relaxing blood vessels and affecting the heart muscle to improve blood flow and reduce heart rate.

Verapamil is available as a 24-hour extended-release capsule that should be taken orally with food, as directed by your healthcare provider. Swallow the capsule whole or split without crushing or chewing, as doing so can lead to an increased risk of side effects. Take the medication regularly at the same time(s) each day to get the most benefit from it.

Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor, and your dose may need to be gradually decreased. It may take up to a week before you see the full benefits of the medication for high blood pressure. If your condition does not improve or worsens, notify your healthcare provider as soon as possible.

The recommended initial dosage for Verapamil extended-release capsules is 180 milligrams (mg) taken orally once daily at bedtime. However, your healthcare provider may adjust your dose if needed based on your medical condition and response to treatment.
