amiodarone and Coronary Vasospasm

amiodarone has been researched along with Coronary Vasospasm 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.

Coronary Vasospasm: Spasm of the large- or medium-sized coronary arteries.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Amiodarone was used in the treatment of 21 patients with supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias which were refractory to conventional antiarrhythmic drugs, individually or in combination."5.27Amiodarone: an effective alternative for recalcitrant supraventricular and ventricular tachycardias. ( Best, JF; Dunn, M; Lynch, L; Rinkenberger, R, 1986)
"In 10 cases of Prinzmetal's angina in which episodes of myocardial ischemia were easily and reproducibly induced by hyperventilation, this test was performed 111 times, 41 times under control conditions and 70 times during treatment with one or more of the following drugs: phentolamine, isosorbide dinitrate, propranolol, verapamil, nifedipine and amiodarone."3.66The hyperventilation test as a method for developing successful therapy in Prinzmetal's angina.
