No, diltiazem ER is not a benzodiazepine. Diltiazem ER is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain (angina) by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow, while benzodiazepines are a class of medications commonly used to treat anxiety, seizures, and insomnia by affecting neurotransmitters in the brain.
Diltiazem, a calcium channel blocker, and ibuprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), can generally be taken together, but caution is advised. Diltiazem may increase the risk of kidney complications when used with NSAIDs like ibuprofen, particularly in patients with pre-existing kidney issues or dehydration. It's important to monitor for any adverse effects and consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice. Always follow medical guidance when combining medications.

If you experience blood in your urine while taking diltiazem, it's important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
No, diltiazem is not a diuretic.
