amiodarone and Atherogenesis

amiodarone has been researched along with Atherogenesis in 1 studies

Amiodarone: An antianginal and class III antiarrhythmic drug. It increases the duration of ventricular and atrial muscle action by inhibiting POTASSIUM CHANNELS and VOLTAGE-GATED SODIUM CHANNELS. There is a resulting decrease in heart rate and in vascular resistance.
amiodarone : A member of the class of 1-benzofurans that is 1-benzofuran substituted by a butyl group at position 2 and a 4-[2-(diethylamino)ethoxy]-3,5-diiodobenzoyl group at position 3. It is a cardiovascular drug used for the treatment of cardiac dysrhythmias.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Amiodarone effectiveness was lowered by lipoprotein alpha-tocopherol enrichment, suggesting some drug-alpha-tocopherol interaction and less lipid pharmacological protection at higher alpha-tocopheroxyl radical generation."1.34Amiodarone inhibits tocopherol-mediated human lipoprotein peroxidation.
