Verapamil intravenous dosage

What is known about the interaction between quinidine and verapamil suggests that a reduction in the dosage of the quinidine may be needed to avoid toxicity. If the verapamil is given intravenously, use with caution and be alert for evidence of acute hypotension. Monitor the effects of concurrent use closely. There is actually a fixed dose preparation containing verapamil and quinidine (Cordichin) available in Germany, which is used for the management of atrial fibrillation. No interaction apparently occurs between quinidine and felodipine or nisoldipine. The situation with diltiazem is as yet uncertain but be alert for the need to reduce the quinidine dosage.
