Diltiaz Er (xr) 240/24 Cap Generic For Dilacor. Is This Just Diltiazem?

Updated

Doctor increased dose from 180 and BP still not budging. Have large red bruises on arms, even small hit will cause great blood spots. Can this be the Dilitaz?

Hi, Keith! Sorry about the problem you're having.

And yes, that could be due to an issue with the medication and you need to contact your doctor about it as soon as possible. They'll need to check it out to ensure that it's not a serious health complication starting and you'll most likely need to switch to a different medication.

I'm not sure why they just increased the dosage, if it wasn't working to begin with, then just trying a different medication is usually the best approach.

How long have you been taking it?

I was taking TAZTIA 180 for a long time, and it didn't really help much, then Dr. switched me to Diltiaz 240 about a month ago. My BP is basically the same.
