Correlation between serum concentration and pharmacological effect on atrioventricular conduction time of the antiarrhythmic drug propafenone. 1978

K Keller, and G Meyer-Estorf, and O A Beck, and H Hochrein

Seven patients with cardiac dysrhythmias received a single, oral, therapeutically effective dose of the antiarrhythmic drug propafenone. The serum levels correlated well with changes in atrioventricular conduction times during the postabsorptive elimination phase (r = 0.8610, p less than 0.001). The mean half-lives of the serum level and the electrocardiographic effect (PQ-time) were 3.6 +/- .2 h and 3.8 +/- 0.6 h, respectively.

D000889 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.
