Tiazac (TIE-a-zac), a new once-daily diltiazem for hypertension
April 1996
Forest Labs is now marketing Tiazac (TIE-a-zac), a new once-daily diltiazem for hypertension.
It's an alternative to Cardizem CD or Dilacor XR...and makes it now a three-way fight to get on formularies.
These products AREN'T bioequivalent or AB-rated...because of their different sustained-release formulations. Check with the patient and physician before switching products.
