This document summarizes calcium channel blocking drugs (CCBs). It discusses their binding sites on the L-type calcium channel, their three classes and differing mechanisms of action, including increasing the time calcium channels are closed. It lists the three classes of CCBs, their chemical names, and hemodynamic effects. It also covers the pharmacokinetics, adverse effects, and clinical uses of CCBs, which include angina, hypertension, and treating various arrhythmias. CCBs improve cardiac function by reducing afterload, increasing oxygen supply, decreasing preload, and normalizing heart rate.
