Abstract
Calcium-channel blockers (CCB) were first developed in the 1960s. Since then, the list of formulations and variety of uses has increased significantly. Unfortunately, toxic exposures to CCBs have also increased since their debut. This review will discuss the CCBs currently marketed in the United States with a focus on their toxicities and potential management.
