When I first tried verap it did nothing for me, its when I mixed it with Lithium that it had a killing effect on the beast. there are lots of people that have posted here that have been helped with verapamil alone. 240mgs twice a day is what I started out on and what I am taking today.
As for how long it takes to kick in, it could be a couple of days like Dick said or up to a week. I guess it depends on the person taking it.
If your husband is chronic like I am I think he might want to throw some Lithium into the mix, neither one helped me untill I mixed them. thats when the pain free days started to run wild on my ass :)))
sorry I couldnt be of more help :(
