Side effects on 120mg of verapamil?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Constipation: Verapamil is usually used for blood pressure and/or heart rate control, it belongs to the family of drugs known as "calcium channel blockers".Its major side effect is constipation, but i doubt it at this relatively low dose.
