Diltalok 60 Tablet 10  contains the following component:

• Diltiazem (90 Mg): Diltiazem works by blocking the entry of calcium ions into specific cells in your body, particularly the vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle cells. This action occurs during depolarisation, a critical phase of electrical activity in active cells. By inhibiting calcium channels, diltiazem promotes the relaxation and dilation of coronary arteries and peripheral blood vessels. This improves blood flow and oxygen delivery to the heart while reducing its workload. Additionally, diltiazem slows down the heart rate and conduction through the AV node, further supporting its therapeutic effects.
