    Product Description

    Mibefradil is a general calcium channel blocker that shows modest selectivity for T-type channels over L-type channels (IC50 = 2.7 and 18.6 μM, respectively).1,2,3 It is a potent vasodilator, increasing coronary artery flow with an EC50 value of 54 nM.2 Mibefradil has minimal negative inotropic effects, supporting its use as an anti-hypertensive agent.2,4
