Calcium Channel Blockers made Simple 

A small correction. Diltiazem is a Benzothiazepine and not a benzodiazepine. Great video otherwise. Thank you!

Thanks for the vid but ca-channel blockers cause reduced levels of calcium in the cells, so their complication is not atrial or ventricular fibrillation but possibly AV block or Hypotension instead. Sooo yeah

Awesome, thanks! I kept forgetting which CCBs are DHP and non-DHP, then had a *facepalm* moment when you mentioned the '-dipine' suffix. Oh jeez...

Hey! Great video! Excellent for revision. It could be shorter though but no complains this is good thumbs up. And at 7:03, should it be K+ leaving via K+ channels to repolarise the pacemaker cells ?

Great breakdown of CCB, just what I was looking for. Thanks!

Excellent lecture !! Thanks

thank you. I was unclear about whether T or L type calcium channels do what where, but I will seek out your other videos as you say they explain this. As an aside, you should try labeling your images (like the APs)... though it might seem obvious, some of us dummies forgot which one belonged to what, so a little label keeps us from stopping the video to go wikipedia the answer... nevertheless, excellent and concise, thanks!

thanks a lot for your video -- I'm currently a MSII and I found it very helpful.

thank you so much ! i am a second year pharmacy student and i think this helped me a lot!

Very easy to understand. But it will be benzothiazepine in stead of benzodiazepine and CCBs doesn't cause calcium overload inside cell, they reduce intracellular calcium concentration and that is why they are able to reduce musle contraction and SA ,AV.conductivity . So they probably not cause ventricular fibrilation by cation overloading. Thank you for the topic.

What is difference between calcium and cholesterol in arteries ? Can we use verapamil and amlodipine to block calcium at a time?

Thank you so Much...Cleared my doubts regarding this topic...Plz do 1 on anasthetics.Plz

very nice, detailed presentation. easy to understand. thank u!!

This is really very useful! Thanks a ton! Can you please make a video on Dihydropyridines.. if possible.

thank you so much! I am a pharma student and this one is very helpful.

Thanks so much ! It's very helpful and easy to remember.

very very useful, pls tell us some more about antihypertensives

hi, great video, but when going through the pacemaker action potential you have the calcium channel types around the wrong way. T channels open to get to potential and L type open to give the influx and the action potential.

Fantastic work

Hello, This was very helpful. When you wrote that prolonged use of verapamil can cause "afib" and death...did you mean ventricular fibrillation? Sharon

could you do a video on drug interaction with each others and why it occurs the way it does, example is phenegran which potentiates the effects of morphine

Thank you so much. I needed this presentation to understand.

We use the CCB in angina- prinzmetal angina, stable angina but not in acute coronary syndrome( unstable stemi, non stemi

@10:00-10::33 you say when Ca gets trapped in side the Pacemaker and Ventricular cell it lead to contraction and so prolong use of Verapamil would cause ventricular contraction, but then you end up saying Atrial fib???

Please make a video on Diltiazem toxicity. I used diltiazem cream for anal fissure for 2 years. I got side effect of dizziness. Its been 1 year since I left using the cream but I still get dizziness when I sit. My blood pressure is normal. I have hyperglycemia due to diltiazem. I have failed to reverse the side effect. Please advice

Thanks again. Beautiful explanation !

how i can create my own video ? please help

Wow this is a gem!

There was a mistake ? Verapail does not cause atrial fibrillation. It is used to treat atrial fibrillation.

Thank you so much. Very helpful.

THANKS MAM , IT WAS INFORMATIVE AND INTERESTING

thx for those great videos. helps a lot

That’s mean we use dihydropyridine ccb in angina- such as amlodipine nifedipine

Wow! Love it! Very helpful!

Excellent video. Thanks

This is a brilliant video, thank :)

thank you . very nice presentation

Great Presentation , Thank You.!

please prolonge use of verapimil cause sudden death due to ventricular fibrillation or atrial fibrillation thank you very much

thank you this was very helpful

Thank you,,it was very helpful :))

keep the good job ! well done

Fantastic video

Well presented. Thank you

thanku and plz make a video on anti retroviral drugs

Very informative. Thank you :)

its really good...thnk u ..!!

Thank you so much for this...

Great information

Great video

Really Good..Thank you :)

It is wonderful :) thanks

the way you say that using verapamil and beta blockers can cause death makes me want to take them and die happily great video, you helped

Nice job

Thank you so much.

Thank you!

Very informative

mall correction at 10:45; I think you mean v.fib not a. fib. Wonderful video!

great one👍

thank you so much!

There are many natural ways to treat the heart and the hypertension . Just search and you will find it out.

Great...

Longtime use of verapinil need some more clarification about compression calcium... death cause....

My lecturer is a consultant cardiologist and he told us dihydropyridines can be used to treat angina - dno why or how but it makes me question the credibility of this video.

great do more slides

nice one

Pls make more videos

Thanks

nice expression

enjoyed

verapamil is non selective

Lots of mistakes, the dihydropyridines are "pines" not "dines and the rest of your mistakes are characterized in previous comments. Makes me wonder if any of the info is accurate though
