amiodarone and Cardiac Cancer

amiodarone has been researched along with Cardiac Cancer in 9 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.

"Amiodarone was given initially to the other 4 patients in whom adenosine caused only temporary conversion to the sinus rhythm."1.36Intravenous amiodarone used alone or in combination with digoxin for life-threatening supraventricular tachyarrhythmia in neonates and small infants. ( Aslan, Y; Celiker, A; Dilber, B; Dilber, E; Gedik, Y; Mutlu, M, 2010)
"AET -especially in childhood-as well as cardiac tumors show a tendency to regression, so that even in this case medical treatment should be the first therapeutic choice."1.30[Atrial ectopic tachycardia in infancy caused by tumor of the interatrial septum]. ( Jung, O; Kramer, HH; Oldigs, HD; Stieh, J; Uebing, A, 1998)
" However, in this patient, effective control of the arrhythmia was achieved with a moderate dosage of oral amiodarone (600 mg daily for 4 weeks, then 400 mg daily), and he had no further episodes of presyncope."1.30Amiodarone for control of recurrent ventricular tachycardia secondary to cardiac metastasis. ( Leak, D, 1998)
