Calcium blockers (or calcium channel blockers) are chemicals used in drugs to disrupt the movement of calcium ions through calcium channels present in various cells. Their effect is used to reduce hypertension (excessive blood pressure), mitigate large vessel stiffness, alter heart rate, prevent vessel constriction, alleviate angina (chest pain) and also may have applications as migraine preventers and painkillers.
