verapamil and Brain Vascular Disorders

verapamil has been researched along with Brain Vascular Disorders in 27 studies

Verapamil: A calcium channel blocker that is a class IV anti-arrhythmia agent.
verapamil : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of dexverapamil and (S)-verapamil. An L-type calcium channel blocker of the phenylalkylamine class, it is used (particularly as the hydrochloride salt) in the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmia, and as a preventive medication for migraine.
2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-{[2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl](methyl)amino}-2-(propan-2-yl)pentanenitrile : A tertiary amino compound that is 3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamine in which the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by a methyl group and a 4-cyano-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methylhexyl group.

"(S)-Emopamil has a less potent calcium antagonistic effect (EC50 = 270 nmol/l) on the aorta than verapamil and gallopamil (EC50 = 35 and 14 nmol/l, respectively)."5.28(S)-emopamil, a novel calcium and serotonin antagonist for the treatment of cerebrovascular disorders. 1st communication: pharmacological profile. ( Hofmann, HP; Raschack, M; Unger, L, 1989)
"A 20-year-old female with hemiplegic migraine was treated during an acute attack with intravenous verapamil, which reproducibly resolved the headache within 20 min but did not affect her hemiplegia."3.74Hemiplegic migraine: hyperperfusion and abortive therapy with intravenous verapamil. ( Dulli, DA; Hsu, DA; Kiff, JE; Rowley, HA; Stafstrom, CE, 2008)
"In stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats, oral long-term treatment with verapamil, propranolol, hydrochlorothiazide, and dihydralazine attenuated the development of hypertension."3.67Development of hypertension and life span in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats during oral long-term treatment with various antihypertensive drugs. ( Gries, J; Kretzschmar, R; Neumann, BW, 1989)
" However, 4-hourly dosing is a practical limitation and verapamil has been proposed as an alternative."3.01Verapamil in the treatment of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome: A systematic review.

" These differences can be attributed at least in part to the low catecholamine profile of verapamil and the marked rapid adrenergic activation with short-acting nifedipine, which could also explain the adverse effects found when this agent is given to patients with acute coronary syndromes."2.40Calcium channel blockers for hypertension: dissecting the evidence for adverse effects. ( Opie, LH, 1997)
"(S)-Emopamil has a less potent calcium antagonistic effect (EC50 = 270 nmol/l) on the aorta than verapamil and gallopamil (EC50 = 35 and 14 nmol/l, respectively)."1.28(S)-emopamil, a novel calcium and serotonin antagonist for the treatment of cerebrovascular disorders. 1st communication: pharmacological profile. ( Hofmann, HP; Raschack, M; Unger, L, 1989)
"Diltiazem-treated animals had decreased cerebral H2O content, but had a marked increase in the area of nonperfused brain, a finding associated with the high incidence of transtentorial herniation in the diltiazem-treated animals."1.27Effects of verapamil and diltiazem on acute stroke in cats.
