CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
1) The management of mild to moderate hypertension and renal
hypertension,
used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive therapy (see
section
4.3 for warning regarding concomitant administration with
beta-blockers).
2) For the management and prophylaxis of angina pectoris (including
variant
angina).
3) The treatment and prophylaxis of paroxysmal supraventricular
tachycardia

_4.2 _
_POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION _
Posology
_Adults: _
_Hypertension:_ 240mg verapamil daily. For patients new to verapamil
therapy,
the physician should consider halving the initial dose to 120mg. Most
patients
respond to 240mg daily given as a single dose. If control is not
achieved after
a period of at least one week, the dosage may be increased to a
maximum of
480mg (in divided doses of 240mg in the morning and 240mg in the
evening,
at an interval of about twelve hours). A further reduction in blood
pressure
may be acheived by combining verapamil with other antihypertensive
agents,
in particular diuretics. 120mg may be used for dose titration
purposes. _ _
_Angina pectoris:_ 120mg twice daily. A small number of patients
respond to a
lower dose and where indictaed, adjustment down to 120mg daily could
be
made. 120mg may be used for dose titration purposes.
