Verapamil and diltiazem are the most widely used calcium channel blockers. PR interval becomes prolonged, but second- and third-degree AV block is

PR interval prolongation is correlated with verapamil plasma concentrations, especially during the early titration phase of therapy. Higher degrees of AV block, however, were infrequently (0.8%) observed in previous verapamil clinical trials [ see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ].
All the associations listed are incorrect except verapamil (see Table 14–1). This group 4 drug increases PR interval and has little effect on the other ECG
1. This study in healthy normotensive male volunteers investigated the pharmacokinetics and the effects on electrocardiographic PR interval, blood pressure and heart rate of single oral doses of the single isomer R-verapamil (250, 5 mg) in comparison to placebo and 240 mg racemic verapamil. 2.

the verapamil dose administered and verapamil plasma level does exist. In early dose titration with verapamil, a relationship exists between verapamil plasma concentration and prolongation of the PR interval. However, during chronic administration this relationship may disappear. The mean elimination half-life in single-dose studies ranged
by L Johannesen Cited by 246The PR interval is most commonly prolonged by slowing con- duction through increase in the PR interval,13 which was the case for verapamil in this
