“The positive inotropic and the arrhythmogenic effects of caffeine could be diminished by pretreating the fibres with propranolol or Ca antagonists ( diltiazem and verapamil).”

“Thapsigargin had no effect on these kinetics, but diltiazem , which inhibits the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, markedly reduced the rate of calcium decrease and abolished caffeine action.”

“Contractile responses to caffeine and electrical stimulation also were suppressed by diltiazem in control tissue.”
“ Diltiazem inhibited and antagonized the abnormal contractures induced by halothane, caffeine and potassium chloride in isolated skeletal muscle from pigs susceptible to malignant hyperpyrexia (MHS).”

“ Diltiazem , in concentrations above 3 × 10−7m suppressed the contraction evoked by excess [K]o, ATP or caffeine , but the inhibitory action of diltiazem on the K‐induced contraction was greatest.”
