Anti-Arrhythmia Agents
Agents used for the treatment or prevention of cardiac arrhythmias. They may affect the polarization-repolarization phase of the action potential, its excitability or refractoriness, or impulse conduction or membrane responsiveness within cardiac fibers. Anti-arrhythmia agents are often classed into four main groups according to their mechanism of action: sodium channel blockade, beta-adrenergic blockade, repolarization prolongation, or calcium channel blockade.
Flecainide
Quinidine
An optical isomer of quinine, extracted from the bark of the CHINCHONA tree and similar plant species. This alkaloid dampens the excitability of cardiac and skeletal muscles by blocking sodium and potassium currents across cellular membranes. It prolongs cellular ACTION POTENTIALS, and decreases automaticity. Quinidine also blocks muscarinic and alpha-adrenergic neurotransmission.

Rifampin
A semisynthetic antibiotic produced from Streptomyces mediterranei. It has a broad antibacterial spectrum, including activity against several forms of Mycobacterium. In susceptible organisms it inhibits DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity by forming a stable complex with the enzyme. It thus suppresses the initiation of RNA synthesis. Rifampin is bactericidal, and acts on both intracellular and extracellular organisms. (From Gilman et al., Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 9th ed, p1160)
Phenytoin
An anticonvulsant that is used to treat a wide variety of seizures. It is also an anti-arrhythmic and a muscle relaxant. The mechanism of therapeutic action is not clear, although several cellular actions have been described including effects on ion channels, active transport, and general membrane stabilization. The mechanism of its muscle relaxant effect appears to involve a reduction in the sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch. Phenytoin has been proposed for several other therapeutic uses, but its use has been limited by its many adverse effects and interactions with other drugs.
Antipyrine
Enzyme Induction
Sick Sinus Syndrome
A condition caused by dysfunctions related to the SINOATRIAL NODE including impulse generation (CARDIAC SINUS ARREST) and impulse conduction (SINOATRIAL EXIT BLOCK). It is characterized by persistent BRADYCARDIA, chronic ATRIAL FIBRILLATION, and failure to resume sinus rhythm following CARDIOVERSION. This syndrome can be congenital or acquired, particularly after surgical correction for heart defects.
Electrocardiography
Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY.

Intracoronary flecainide induces ST alternans and reentrant arrhythmia on intact canine heart: A role of 4-aminopyridine-sensitive current. (1/169)
BACKGROUND: The electrical alternans shown on an ST segment, ST alternans, is known as one of the most important predictors of ventricular fibrillation (VF). It has also been reported that sodium channel inhibition changes action potential configuration, especially on the repolarization phase. Thus, the sodium channel blocker may produce ST alternans and trigger reentrant arrhythmia. METHODS AND RESULTS: A sodium channel blocker (disopyramide, lidocaine, or flecainide) was infused selectively into the left anterior descending coronary artery in anesthetized, open-chest dogs. Sixty unipolar electrograms were simultaneously recorded from the entire cardiac surface of the heart. The amplitude of ST alternans (STa) was determined as the difference in the ST-segment magnitude between 2 consecutive electrograms. We accepted the greatest STa among 60 leads for evaluation. High-dose flecainide (100 microg. kg-1. min-1) increased STa and evoked a spontaneous VF. The STa in high-dose flecainide loading (8.7+/-3.4 mV; mean+/-SEM) was significantly greater than that in disopyramide or lidocaine (0. 9+/-0.4 and 0.8+/-0.2 mV, P<0.05). Treatment of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) suppressed the increase in STa and the occurrence of VF evoked by flecainide, while E4031 or verapamil did not inhibit those. CONCLUSIONS: Flecainide caused the ST alternans that was closely correlated to the occurrence of VF. Because the ST alternans was suppressed by 4-AP treatment, a 4-AP-sensitive current such as Ito or Isus may play an important role on this phenomenon. (+info)Disopyramide improves hypoxia in patients with tetralogy of Fallot through a negative inotropic action. (2/169)
The hemodynamic and right ventricular volumetric effects of disopyramide were investigated in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TF). Intracardiac pressure and oxygen saturation were measured, before and after intravenous administration of disopyramide (2 mg/kg) in 7 patients who had not had previous surgery. Right ventricular volume and the diameter of its outflow tract were analyzed in these 7 and in a further 4 patients with a previous shunt. Aortic oxygen saturation increased from 90.4+/-7.5 (mean+/-SD) to 94.1+/-5.5% (p<0.05) with an increase in pulmonary blood flow and pressure. The systolic pressure gradient between the main pulmonary artery and the right ventricle decreased from 59+/-8 to 42+/-9 mmHg (p<0.01). Aortic pressure fell from 77+/-5 to 67+/-4 mmHg (p<0.05). Systemic vascular resistance increased from 15.3+/-2.2 to 19.4+/-3.3 u x m2 (p<0.05). Pulmonary vascular resistance remained unchanged. The diastolic and systolic diameter indices of the right ventricular outflow tract increased from 17.8+/-3.8 to 20.5+/-3.4 and from 6.5+/-3.0 to 10.4+/-2.2 mm/m2, respectively (p<0.01), whereas the right ventricular ejection fraction decreased. Disopyramide improves systemic oxygen saturation in patients with TF through its negative inotropic action on the right ventricle. (+info)Serum alpha 1-acid glycoprotein, sialic acid, and protein binding of disopyramide in normal subjects and cardiac patients. (3/169)
AIM: To study influence of congestive heart failure (CHF) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) and sialic acid (SA) concentration, and binding of AGP to disopyramide (Dis). METHODS: Sera from 85 healthy subjects, 6 patients with CHF, and 6 patients with AMI were determined by immunochemistry for AGP, by HPLC method for sialic acid (SA), and by ultrafiltration and HPLC for the free fraction of Dis. RESULTS: Serum AGP concentrations (g.L-1) were 0.74 +/- 0.16 (healthy), 1.18 +/- 0.40 (d 1, CHF) and 0.90 +/- 0.24 (d 14, CHF), 1.53 +/- 0.26 (d 5, AMI) and 1.08 (d 14, AMI). The free Dis were 1.76 +/- 0.62 (d 1) and 2.14 +/- 0.48 (d 14), in CHF patients, 1.66 +/- 0.52 (d 5) and 1.77 (d 14) in AMI patients. The changes of serum SA and AGP concentrations showed the same tendency. CONCLUSION: The free Dis in serum was affected by the change of AGP binding in CHF and AMI patients. (+info)Hypoglycemia induced by interaction between clarithromycin and disopyramide. (4/169)
A 59-year-old man receiving hemodialysis was hospitalized due to severe hypoglycemic attack. The patient had been treated with disopyramide (50 mg/day) because of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Hypoglycemia occurred after taking clarithromycin (CAM, 600 mg/day), a macrolide antibiotic. The serum disopyramide concentration reached 8.0 micrograms/ml (23.6 microM) in the presence of CAM, while it was 1.5 micrograms/ml before the addition of CAM. A 75 g oral glucose tolerance test and daily profiles of blood glucose value showed that blood glucose levels were significantly lower in the presence of CAM and disopyramide compared to that in the absence of these drugs. The Turner index in the presence of CAM and disopyramide was significantly higher than that in the absence of these drugs, suggesting that a toxic concentration of disopyramide enhanced insulin secretion, resulting in the induction of hypoglycemic attacks, in which the inhibitory effects of CAM on the hepatic chytochrome P-450 might be involved. QT and QTc intervals were prolonged in the presence of CAM and disopyramide, but torsades de points were not observed in this patient receiving nicorandil (15 mg/day). Thus, it should be taken into account that life-threatening hypoglycemia may result from the interaction between clarithromycin and disopyramide. (+info)Mechanism of transient outward K(+) channel block by disopyramide. (5/169)
The block of the transient outward K(+) current (I(to)) by disopyramide was studied in isolated rat right ventricular myocytes using whole cell patch-clamp techniques. Disopyramide at a concentration of 10 to 1000 microM reduced peak I(to) and accelerated the apparent rate of current inactivation. The onset of block was assessed using a double pulse protocol with steps from -70 to +50 mV. As the duration of the first (conditioning) pulse was increased from 1 to 50 ms, block was increased. Further prolongation of the conditioning pulse resulted in relief of block, which was nearly complete with a 1-s conditioning pulse. In the absence of drug, the recovery from inactivation of I(to) at -70 mV was fast and best fit with a single exponential function having a time constant of 33 +/- 13 ms. In contrast, in the presence of 100 microM disopyramide, recovery from apparent inactivation was biexponential with time constants of 35 +/- 13 ms and 7.16 +/- 1.5 s. The time course of the slow component was used to estimate recovery of channels from block by disopyramide. Recovery from block was voltage-dependent, suggesting that disopyramide was trapped by the open channel. Taken together, these results suggest that disopyramide rapidly blocks channels in the open state and that unblock occurs from the inactivated state. (+info)Transverse conduction capabilities of the crista terminalis in patients with atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation. (6/169)
OBJECTIVES: In this study, the transverse conduction capabilities of the crista terminalis (CT) were determined during pacing in sinus rhythm in patients with atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation. BACKGROUND: It has been demonstrated that the CT is a barrier to transverse conduction during typical atrial flutter. Mapping studies in animal models provide evidence that this is functional. The influence of transverse conduction capabilities of the CT on the development of atrial flutter remains unclear. METHODS: The CT was identified by intracardiac echocardiography. The atrial activation at the CT was determined during programmed stimulation with one extrastimulus at five pacing sites anteriorly to the CT in 10 patients with atrial flutter and 10 patients with atrial fibrillation before and after intravenous administration of 2 mg/kg disopyramide. Subsequently, atrial arrhythmias were reinduced. RESULTS: At baseline, pacing with longer coupling intervals resulted in a transverse pulse propagation across the CT. During shorter coupling intervals, split electrograms and a marked alteration of the activation sequence of its second component were found, indicating a functional conduction block. In patients with atrial flutter, the longest coupling interval that resulted in a complete transverse conduction block at the CT was significantly longer than that in patients with atrial fibrillation (285 +/- 49 ms vs. 221 +/- 28 ms; p < 0.05). After disopyramide administration, a transverse conduction block occurred at longer coupling intervals as compared with baseline (287 +/- 68 ms vs. 250 +/- 52 ms; p < 0.05). Subsequently, a sustained atrial arrhythmia was inducible in 15 of 20 patients. This was atrial flutter in three patients with previously documented atrial fibrillation and in eight patients with history of atrial flutter. Mapping revealed a conduction block at the CT in all of these patients. CONCLUSIONS: It was found that the CT provides transverse conduction capabilities and that the conduction block during atrial flutter is functional. Limited transverse conduction capabilities of the CT seem to contribute to the development of atrial flutter. (+info)Chronotropic, inotropic, dromotropic and coronary vasodilator effects of bisaramil, a new class I antiarrhythmic drug, assessed using canine isolated, blood-perfused heart preparations. (7/169)
The cardiovascular effects of a new class I antiarrhythmic drug, bisaramil, were examined using canine isolated, blood-perfused heart preparations. Bisaramil exerted negative chronotropic, inotropic and dromotropic effects as well as coronary vasodilator action, which are qualitatively the same as those of classical class I drugs. The selectivity of bisaramil for the intraventricular conduction vs the other cardiac variables was compared with that of disopyramide and flecainide. Bisaramil was the most selective for intraventricular conduction, while it was the least selective for ventricular muscle contraction. We conclude that bisaramil may become a useful antiarrhythmic drug with less cardiac adverse effects. (+info)Dynamic outflow obstruction due to the transient extensive left ventricular wall motion abnormalities caused by acute myocarditis in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: reduction in ventricular afterload by disopyramide. (8/169)
A 65-year-old woman was admitted to the coronary care unit because of acute pulmonary edema. Immediate 2-dimensional and Doppler echocardiograms revealed extensive left ventricular wall motion abnormalities and left ventricular hypertrophy with extreme outflow obstruction. Although an ECG showed ST-segment elevation in the anterolateral leads, a coronary arteriogram revealed normal epicardial arteries. Heart failure was relieved after diminishing the dynamic outflow obstruction with disopyramide administration. An endomyocardial biopsy from the right ventricle on the 8th hospital day showed borderline myocarditis. Wall motion abnormalities gradually normalized within 2 weeks. It is speculated that her pulmonary edema would not have been relieved so readily without the immediate reduction in ventricular afterload by disopyramide. These clinical changes over time were observed with serial echo-Doppler examinations. (+info)

Lamotrigine
... is a member of the sodium channel blocking class of antiepileptic drugs.[60] This may suppress the release of glutamate and aspartate, two of the dominant excitatory neurotransmitters in the CNS.[61] It is generally accepted to be a member of the sodium channel blocking class of antiepileptic drugs,[62] but it could have additional actions since it has a broader spectrum of action than other sodium channel antiepileptic drugs such as phenytoin and is effective in the treatment of the depressed phase of bipolar disorder, whereas other sodium channel blocking antiepileptic drugs are not, possibly on account of its sigma receptor activity. In addition, lamotrigine shares few side-effects with other, unrelated anticonvulsants known to inhibit sodium channels, which further emphasises its unique properties.[63] It is a triazine derivate that inhibits voltage-sensitive sodium channels, leading to stabilization of neuronal membranes. It also blocks L-, N-, and P-type calcium channels and ...
Domperidone
The hormone prolactin stimulates lactation (production of breast milk). Dopamine, released by the hypothalamus stops the release of prolactin from the pituitary gland. Domperidone, by acting as an anti-dopaminergic agent, results in increased prolactin secretion, and thus promotes lactation (that is, it is a galactogogue). In some nations, including Australia, domperidone is used off-label, based on uncertain and anecdotal evidence of its usefulness, as a therapy for mothers who are having difficulty breastfeeding.[24][25] In the United States, domperidone is not approved for this or any other use.[26][27] A study called the EMPOWER trial was designed to assess the effectiveness and safety of domperidone in assisting mothers of preterm babies to supply breast milk for their infants.[28] The study randomized 90 mothers of preterm babies to receive either domperidone 10 mg orally three times daily for 28 days (Group A) or placebo 10 mg orally three times daily for 14 days followed by domperidone ...
