Abstract

This study included 168 patients with angina pectoris, who were divided into two groups, the diltiazem SR (No. 88) group and diltiazem HCL (No. 80) group. The two groups were comparable in age and duration of coronary heart disease. The results were as follows: (1) The total clinical effect of diltiazem SR (94.3%) was slightly greater than that of diltiazem HCL (82.5%), the effect in ECG improvement was 53.3% and 53.4% respectively. (2) The rate of adverse effect was 12.5% in diltiazem SR group and 14.4% in diltiazem HCL group. It is concluded that the two different types of diltiazem have similar effect in the treatment of angina pectoris. However, it is more convenient to take diltiazem SR than diltiazem HCL as the former needs only twice a day.
