Oral calcium-channel blocking agents are considered the drugs of choice for the management of Prinzmetal variant angina. A nondihydropyridine calcium-channel blocker (e.g., diltiazem, verapamil) also has been recommended in patients with unstable angina who have continuing or ongoing ischemia when therapy with beta-blocking agents and nitrates is inadequate, not tolerated, or contraindicated and when severe left ventricular dysfunction, pulmonary edema, or other contraindications are not present. In the management of unstable or chronic stable angina pectoris, verapamil appears to be as effective as beta-adrenergic blocking agents (e.g., propranolol) and/or oral nitrates. In unstable or chronic stable angina pectoris, verapamil may reduce the frequency of attacks, allow a decrease in sublingual nitroglycerin dosage, and increase the patient's exercise tolerance. /Included in US product label/

Verapamil is used for rapid conversion to sinus rhythm of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), including tachycardia associated with Wolff-Parkinson-White or Lown-Ganong-Levine syndrome; the drug also is used for control of rapid ventricular rate in nonpreexcited atrial flutter or fibrillation. The American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/Heart Rhythm Society (ACC/AHA/HRS) guideline for the management of adult patients with supraventricular tachycardia recommends the use of verapamil in the treatment of various SVTs (e.g., atrial flutter, junctional tachycardia, focal atrial tachycardia, atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT)); in general, IV verapamil is recommended for acute treatment, while oral verapamil is recommended for ongoing management of these arrhythmias. /Included in the US product label/

Verapamil is indicated in the treatment of vasopastic (i.e. Prinzmetal's) angina, unstable angina, and chronic stable angina. It is also indicated to treat hypertension, for the prophylaxis of repetitive paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, and in combination with digoxin to control ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. Given intravenously, it is indicated for the treatment of various supraventricular tachyarrhythmias, including rapid conversion to sinus rhythm in patients with supraventricular tachycardia and for temporary control of ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. Verapamil is commonly used off-label for prophylaxis of cluster headaches.
Verapamil is an L-type calcium channel blocker with antiarrhythmic, antianginal, and antihypertensive activity. Immediate-release verapamil has a relatively short duration of action, requiring dosing 3 to 4 times daily, but extended-release formulations are available that allow for once-daily dosing. As verapamil is a negative inotropic medication (i.e. it decreases the strength of myocardial contraction), it should not be used in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as the decrease in contractility caused by verapamil may increase the risk of exacerbating these pre-existing conditions.
Calcium Channel Blockers
A class of drugs that act by selective inhibition of calcium influx through cellular membranes. (See all compounds classified as Calcium Channel Blockers.)
Vasodilator Agents
Drugs used to cause dilation of the blood vessels. (See all compounds classified as Vasodilator Agents.)
Anti-Arrhythmia Agents
Agents used for the treatment or prevention of cardiac arrhythmias. They may affect the polarization-repolarization phase of the action potential, its excitability or refractoriness, or impulse conduction or membrane responsiveness within cardiac fibers. Anti-arrhythmia agents are often classed into four main groups according to their mechanism of action: sodium channel blockade, beta-adrenergic blockade, repolarization prolongation, or calcium channel blockade.

Absorption
More than 90% of orally administered verapamil is absorbed - despite this, bioavailability ranges only from 20% to 30% due to rapid biotransformation following first-pass metabolism in the portal circulation. Absorption kinetic parameters are largely dependent on the specific formulation of verapamil involved. Immediate-release verapamil reaches peak plasma concentrations (i.e. Tmax) between 1-2 hours following administration, whereas sustained-release formulations tend to have a Tmax between 6 - 11 hours. AUC and Cmax values are similarly dependent upon formulation. Chronic administration of immediate-release verapamil every 6 hours resulted in plasma concentrations between 125 and 400 ng/mL. Steady-state AUC0-24h and Cmax values for a sustained-release formulation were 1037 ngh/ml and 77.8 ng/mL for the R-isomer and 195 ngh/ml and 16.8 ng/mL for the S-isomer, respectively. Interestingly, the absorption kinetics of verapamil are highly stereospecific - following oral administration of immediate-release verapamil every 8 hours, the relative systemic availability of the S-enantiomer compared to the R-enantiomer was 13% after a single dose and 18% at steady-state.
Route of Elimination
Approximately 70% of an administered dose is excreted as metabolites in the urine and 16% in the feces within 5 days. Approximately 3% - 4% is excreted in the urine as unchanged drug.
Volume of Distribution
Verapamil has a steady-state volume of distribution of approximately 300L for its R-enantiomer and 500L for its S-enantiomer.
Clearance
Systemic clearance following 3 weeks of continuous treatment was approximately 340 mL/min for R-verapamil and 664 mL/min for S-verapamil. Of note, apparent oral clearance appears to vary significantly between single dose and multiple-dose conditions. The apparent oral clearance following single doses of verapamil was approximately 1007 mL/min for R-verapamil and 5481 mL/min for S-verapamil, whereas 3 weeks of continuous treatment resulted in apparent oral clearance values of approximately 651 mL/min for R-verapamil and 2855 mL/min for S-verapamil.

/MILK/ Verapamil is excreted into breast milk. A daily dose of 240 mg produced milk levels that were approx 23% of maternal serum. Serum levels in the infant were 2.1 ng/mL but could not be detected (<1 ng/mL) 38 hr after treatment was stopped. ... In a second case, a mother was treated with 80 mg 3 times/day for hypertension for 4 wk prior to the determination of serum & milk concns. Steady-state concentrations of verapamil and the metabolite, norverapamil, in milk were 25.8 and 8.8 ng/mL, respectively. These values were 60% and 16% of the concns in plasma. The investigators estimated that the breast-fed child received <0.01% of the mother's dose. Neither verapamil nor the metabolite could be detected in the plasma of the child.

The pharmacokinetics and hemodynamic effects of a combination of verapamil and trandolapril were studied in 20 patients with hypertension (ages 29-71 yr), 10 of whom also had fatty liver disease, who received a sustained-release oral capsule containing 180 mg verapamil and 1 mg trandolapril once daily for 7 days. For verapamil, no statistically significant differences were seen between patients with and without fatty liver with regard to Cmax (110.5 vs 76.5 ug/L), plasma AUC from 0-24 hr (1260.6 vs 941.2 ug/L hr), and elimination half-life (9.8 vs 9.2 hr).

An open, randomized, single dose study of the effects of food on the bioavailability of sustained-release (SR) verapamil hydrochloride (Isoptin) was conducted in 12 healthy volunteers (aged 19-65 yr) who received 240 mg of the SR preparation while fasting or with food and a conventional preparation while fasting. Although the elimination half-life of SR verapamil was unchanged, the time to maximum concentration was prolonged and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) was 80% of the regular preparation. Concomitant food administration prolonged the time to maximum concentration from 7.3+-3.4 to 11.7+-6.3 h but had little effect on the maximum concentration, half-life or AUC of SR verapamil.

Verapamil is extensively metabolized by the liver, with up to 80% of an administered dose subject to elimination via pre-systemic metabolism - interestingly, this first-pass metabolism appears to clear the S-enantiomer of verapamil much faster than the R-enantiomer. The remaining parent drug undergoes O-demethylation, N-dealkylation, and N-demethylation to a number of different metabolites via the cytochrome P450 enzyme system. Norverapamil, one of the major circulating metabolites, is the result of verapamil's N-demethylation via CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5, and carries approximately 20% of the cardiovascular activity of its parent drug. The other major pathway involved in verapamil metabolism is N-dealkylation via CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP1A2 to the D-617 metabolite. Both norverapamil and D-617 are further metabolized by other CYP isoenzymes to various secondary metabolites. CYP2D6 and CYP2E1 have also been implicated in the metabolic pathway of verapamil, albeit to a minor extent. Minor pathways of verapamil metabolism involve its O-demethylation to D-703 via CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP2C18, and to D-702 via CYP2C9 and CYP2C18. Several steps in verapamil's metabolic pathway show stereoselective preference for the S-enantiomer of the given substrate, including the generation of the D-620 metabolite by CYP3A4/5 and the D-617 metabolite by CYP2C8.
Metabolites: The main metabolite is norverapamil which has an elimination half-life very similar to that of the parent compound, ranging from 4 to 8 hours. Verapamil undergoes an extensive hepatic metabolism. Due to a large hepatic first-pass effect, bioavailability does not exceed 20 - 35% in normal subjects. Twelve metabolites have been described. The main metabolite is norverapamil and the others are various N- and 0-dealkylated metabolites. Elimination by route of exposure: Kidney: About 70% of the administered dose is excreted in urine within 5 days as metabolites, of which 3-4% is excreted as unchanged drug. Feces: About 16% of the ingested dose is excreted within 5 days in feces as metabolites. Breast milk: Verapamil may appear in breast milk.

Verapamil and its major metabolite norverapamil were identified to be both mechanism-based inhibitors and substrates of CYP3A and reported to have non-linear pharmacokinetics in clinic. Metabolic clearances of verapamil and norverapmil as well as their effects on CYP3A activity were firstly measured in pooled human liver microsomes. The results showed that S-isomers were more preferential to be metabolized than R-isomers for both verapamil and norverapamil, and their inhibitory effects on CYP3A activity were also stereoselective with S-isomers more potent than R-isomers. A semi-physiologically based pharmacokinetic model (semi-PBPK) characterizing mechanism-based auto-inhibition was developed to predict the stereoselective pharmacokinetic profiles of verapamil and norverapamil following single or multiple oral doses. Good simulation was obtained, which indicated that the developed semi-PBPK model can simultaneously predict pharmacokinetic profiles of S-verapamil, R-verapamil, S-norverapamil and R-norverapamil. Contributions of auto-inhibition to verapamil and norverapamil accumulation were also investigated following the 38th oral dose of verapamil sustained-release tablet (240 mg once daily). The predicted accumulation ratio was about 1.3-1.5 fold, which was close to the observed data of 1.4-2.1-fold. Finally, the developed semi-PBPK model was further applied to predict drug-drug interactions (DDI) between verapamil and other three CYP3A substrates including midazolam, simvastatin, and cyclosporine A. Successful prediction was also obtained, which indicated that the developed semi-PBPK model incorporating auto-inhibition also showed great advantage on DDI prediction with CYP3A substrates.

The biotransformation pathway of verapamil, a widely prescribed calcium channel blocker, was investigated by electrochemistry (EC) coupled online to liquid chromatography (LC) and electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Mimicry of the oxidative phase I metabolism was achieved in a simple amperometric thin-layer cell equipped with a boron-doped diamond (BDD) working electrode. Structures of the electrochemically generated metabolites were elucidated on the basis of accurate mass data and additional MS/MS experiments. We were able to demonstrate that all of the most important metabolic products of the calcium antagonist including norverapamil (formed by N-demethylation) can easily be simulated using this purely instrumental technique. Furthermore, newly reported metabolic reaction products like carbinolamines or imine methides become accessible. The results obtained by EC were compared with conventional in vitro studies by conducting incubations with rat as well as human liver microsomes (RLMs, HLMs). Both methods showed good agreement with the data from EC/LC/MS. Thus, it can be noted that EC is very well-suited for the simulation of the oxidative metabolism of verapamil. In summary, this study confirms that EC/LC/MS can be a powerful tool in drug discovery and development when applied complementary to established in vitro or in vivo approaches.

Mechanism-based inactivation (MBI) of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A by verapamil and the resulting drug-drug interactions have been studied in vitro, but the inhibition of verapamil on its own metabolic clearance in clinic, namely auto-inhibition of verapamil metabolism, has never been reproduced in vitro. This paper aimed to evaluate the utility of gel entrapped rat hepatocytes in reflecting such metabolic auto-inhibition using hepatocyte monolayer as a control. Despite being a similar concentration- and time-dependent profile, auto-inhibition of verapamil metabolism showed apparent distinctions between the two culture models. Firstly, gel entrapped hepatocytes were more sensitive to such inhibition, which could be largely due to their higher CYP3A activity detected by the formation rates of 6-beta-hydroxy testosterone and 1'-hydroxy midazolam. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of ketoconazole and verapamil on CYP 3A activity as well as the reduction of verapamil intrinsic clearance (CL(int)) by ketoconazole was only observed in gel-entrapped hepatocytes. In this respect, the involvement of CYP3A in auto-inhibition of verapamil metabolism could be illustrated in gel-entrapped hepatocytes but not in hepatocyte monolayer. All of these results indicated that hepatocytes of gel entrapment reflected more of verapamil metabolic auto-inhibition than hepatocyte monolayer and could serve as a suitable system for investigating drug metabolism.

Single-dose studies of immediate-release verapamil have demonstrated an elimination half-life of 2.8 to 7.4 hours, which increases to 4.5 to 12.0 hours following repetitive dosing. The elimination half-life is also prolonged in patients with hepatic insufficiency (14 to 16 hours) and in the elderly (approximately 20 hours). Intravenously administered verapamil has rapid distribution phase half-life of approximately 4 minutes, followed by a terminal elimination phase half-life of 2 to 5 hours.
The pharmacokinetics of verapamil and its metabolite, norverapamil, were studied in 10 patients (ages 19-69 yr) with portal hypertension and in 6 healthy subjects (ages 21-69 yr) who received an oral dose of 80 mg verapamil hydrochloride (Isoptin). The terminal phase half-life of verapamil was 210 hr in controls and 1384 hr in patients.

Verapamil inhibits L-type calcium channels by binding to a specific area of their alpha-1 subunit,Cav1.2, which is highly expressed on L-type calcium channels in vascular smooth muscle and myocardial tissue where these channels are responsible for the control of peripheral vascular resistance and heart contractility. Calcium influx through these channels allows for the propagation of action potentials necessary for the contraction of muscle tissue and the heart's electrical pacemaker activity. Verapamil binds to these channels in a voltage- and frequency-dependent manner, meaning affinity is increased 1) as vascular smooth muscle membrane potential is reduced, and 2) with excessive depolarizing stimulus. Verapamil's mechanism of action in the treatment of angina and hypertension is likely due to the mechanism described above. Inhibition of calcium influx prevents the contraction of vascular smooth muscle, causing relaxation/dilation of blood vessels throughout the peripheral circulation - this lowers systemic vascular resistance (i.e. afterload) and thus blood pressure. This reduction in vascular resistance also reduces the force against which the heart must push, decreasing myocardial energy consumption and oxygen requirements and thus alleviating angina. Electrical activity through the AV node is responsible for determining heart rate, and this activity is dependent upon calcium influx through L-type calcium channels. By inhibiting these channels and decreasing the influx of calcium, verapamil prolongs the refractory period of the AV node and slows conduction, thereby slowing and controlling the heart rate in patients with arrhythmia. Verapamil's mechanism of action in the treatment of cluster headaches is unclear, but is thought to result from an effect on other calcium channels (e.g. N-, P-, Q-, or T-type). Verapamil is known to interact with other targets, including other calcium channels, potassium channels, and adrenergic receptors.
Calcium antagonists inhibit excitation-contraction coupling in myocardial and smooth muscle by blocking the transmembrane carrier of calcium. This results in decreased myocardial contractility and in vasodilatation. ... /Salt not specified/

Verapamil has been shown to be neuroprotective in several acute neurotoxicity models due to blockade of calcium entry into neurons. However, the potential use of verapamil to treat chronic neurodegenerative diseases has not been reported. Using rat primary mesencephalic neuron/glia cultures, we report that verapamil significantly inhibited LPS-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity in both pre- and post-treatment experiments. Reconstituted culture studies revealed that the presence of microglia was essential in verapamil-elicited neuroprotection. Mechanistic studies showed that decreased production of inflammatory mediators from LPS-stimulated microglia underlay neuroprotective property of verapamil. Further studies demonstrated that microglial NADPH oxidase (PHOX), the key superoxide-producing enzyme, but not calcium channel in neurons, is the site of action for the neuroprotective effect of verapamil. This conclusion was supported by the following two observations: 1) Verapamil failed to show protective effect on LPS-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity in PHOX-deficient (deficient in the catalytic subunit of gp91(phox)) neuron/glia cultures; 2) Ligand binding studies showed that the binding of (3)H-verapamil onto gp91(phox) transfected COS7 cell membranes was higher than the non-transfected control. The calcium channel-independent neuroprotective property of verapamil was further supported by the finding that R(+)-verapamil, a less active form in blocking calcium channel, showed the same potency in neuroprotection, inhibition of pro-inflammatory factors production and binding capacity to gp91(phox) membranes as R(-)-verapamil, the active isomer of calcium channel blocker. In conclusion, our results demonstrate a new indication of verapamil-mediated neuroprotection through a calcium channel-independent pathway and provide a valuable avenue for the development of therapy for inflammation-related neurodegenerative diseases.
