A member asked:
Are there alternative therapies for calcium channel blocker overdose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alternative?: Please define "alternative". If you just wait, a calcium blocker will just wear off by itself. If you have severe low blood pressure or severe blocked heart rhythm, you will need immediate treatment with therapies of proven value.
