Uses of Herbesser 90mg SR Capsule

Herbesser 90mg SR Capsule is used to prevent angina attacks and to treat high blood pressure, usually as a long-term daily treatment. It can also slow a fast heart rate in some rhythm problems, such as atrial fibrillation. A specially prepared cream or ointment is used separately to help heal anal fissures, painful tears in the lining of the back passage, by relaxing the muscle around it.

How Herbesser 90mg SR Capsule works

Diltiazem is a calcium channel blocker. It reduces the flow of calcium into the muscle cells of the heart and blood vessels, which relaxes and widens the arteries and slows the heart rate. This lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart’s need for oxygen.
