Chemistry:Lidoflazine

From HandWiki

Lidoflazine is a piperazine calcium channel blocker. It is a coronary vasodilator with some antiarrhythmic action.[1] Lidoflazine was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1964. In 2025 Lidoflazine has also been reported to interact with tubulin and inhibit its polymerization.[2]
