Hi,
Verapamil is used to treat hypertension and angina (chest pain caused by the reduced blood supply to different areas of the heart).
You should consider speaking to your doctor before discontinuing any medications because replacement medications would be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
