Can I take two pills in one day of the Diltiazem 24HR ER 180 MG CAP ## Hello, Mike! How are you? No, that may result in overdose. You should take one a day, as prescribed. If it isn't control your blood pressure or cardiac condition, then please consult your doctor as you may need to try a different medication or add a second one. The FDA classifies this medication as a calcium channel blocker and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, increased urination and hypotension. Is there anything else I can help with?
