Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Many sudden deaths are presumed to be due to an arrhythmia, but the drugs best known for antiarrhythmic activity, the local anesthetic agents, have not been suitable prophylactic agents because of their toxicities and other undesirable pharmacologic characteristics."2.65Selection of an antiarrhythmic drug for a sudden-death-prevention trial.
