Safety of Flecainide

open access: yesDrug Safety, 2012
Flecainide is a class Ic antiarrhythmic agent that has an important role as part of rhythm control strategies in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Early clinical data on the use of flecainide showed an increase in arrhythmias and mortality compared with placebo in patients with a previous myocardial infarction and asymptomatic or mildly ...

Flecainide in Ventricular Arrhythmias: From Old Myths to New Perspectives [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Flecainide is an IC antiarrhythmic drug (AAD) that received in 1984 Food and Drug Administration approval for the treatment of sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) and subsequently for rhythm control of atrial fibrillation (AF).

Flecainide

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 1994
Flecainide. Flecainide is a Class IC antiarrhythmic agent whose primary electrophysiologic effect is a slowing of conduction in a wide range of cardiac tissues. It is well absorbed and effective in suppressing isolated premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) or nonsustained ventricular arrhythmia but has only a modest efficacy when electrophysiologic

Flecainide Intoxication

Journal of Analytical Toxicology, 1990
A fatal case attributed to flecainide intoxication is presented. Quantitation was by capillary gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection. The flecainide concentration in the blood was 13 mg/L as compared to a therapeutic range in serum of 0.2-1.0 mg/L.

Flecainide and encainide

European Heart Journal, 1987
Flecainide and encainide (class IC) are presently under clinical evaluation in Italy. They prolong the duration of the QRS but not the period of ventricular repolarisation: the prolongation of QT is due solely to the prolongation of the Q-J.

Flecainide How and When: A Practical Guide in Supraventricular Arrhythmias [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Transcatheter ablation was increasingly and successfully used to treat symptomatic drug refractory patients affected by supraventricular arrhythmias. Antiarrhythmic drug treatment still plays a major role in patient management, alone or combined with non-

Metabolism of flecainide

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1984
After oral administration in healthy human subjects, flecainide absorption is prompt (average peak level at 3 to 4 hours) and nearly complete (at least 90%); flecainide does not appear to undergo consequential presystemic biotransformation. Oral absorption in patients with cardiac arrhythmias, renal disease and congestive heart failure (CHF) is also ...

Flecainide Test in Brugada Syndrome: A Reproducible but Risky Tool [PDF]

open access: yesPACE - Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2003
The flecainide test is widely used in Brugada syndrome. However, its reproducibility and safety remain ill-defined. This study included 22 patients (18 men, mean age 34 years). Mutations in the SCN5A gene were found in eight patients.
