Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Mibefradil, also known as Ro 405967 or Ro 40-5967, is a drug for the treatment of hypertension and chronic angina pectoris. It belongs to a group known as calcium channel blockers. The mechanism of action of mibefradil is characterized by the selective blockade of transient, low-voltage-activated (T-type) calcium channels over long-lasting, high-voltage-activated (L-type) calcium channels, which is probably responsible for many of its unique properties. It is nonselective. On June 8, 1998, Roche announced the voluntary withdrawal of the drug from the market, one year after approval by the FDA, due to the potential for drug interactions, some of them deadly, which may occur when it is taken together with some other medications.
