amiodarone and Dermatitis Medicamentosa

amiodarone has been researched along with Dermatitis Medicamentosa in 25 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.

"We describe three cases of hyperpigmentation after using amiodarone in elder men."4.85[Skin adverse effects of amiodarone]. ( Jedlicková, H; Vasků, V; Zgazarová, S, 2009)
"Amiodarone, an iodine -- rich benzofurane derivate, is a highly effective agent for the prophylaxis and treatment of various cardiac arrhythmias, but it is associated with numerous side effects."3.73[Dermatological adverse reactions of amiodarone]. ( Reĭngardene, DI; Zhilene, VI, 2005)
" As the arrhythmia did not respond to any kind of therapy, amiodarone treatment was started, which the patient received in a maintenance dose of 600-400 mg/day for 4 years."3.68[Amidaron-induced dermatopathy resulting from unnecessary Cordarone therapy of ventricular parasystole]. ( Fazekas, T; Korom, I; Mágori, A; Pogátsa, G; Ungi, I, 1991)
"To assess the incidence of adverse effects associated with long-term amiodarone therapy, we reviewed the records of 217 consecutive patients who were treated for refractory arrhythmia."3.67Side effects and complications of amiodarone therapy. ( Lown, B; Podrid, PJ; Raeder, EA, 1985)
" Here, we discuss safety issues relating to the long-term use of oral amiodarone in adults."2.42Using oral amiodarone safely. ( , 2003)
" Dronaderone is a novel antiarrhythmic that is similar in composition to amiodarone, but is non-iodinated and also has a methane-sulfonyl group, significantly decreasing its incidence of adverse effects as compared to amiodarone."1.39Dronaderone-induced phototoxicity. ( Elpern, DJ; Ladizinski, B, 2013)
"She presented generalized skin rash, arthralgia on upper and lower extremities, associated with difficulty to walk."1.39An unexpected side-effect of a commonly used drug. ( Adorno, E; Fernández González, F; Fernández González, R; Miranda, S; Nieves, J; Santiago Casiano, M, 2013)
"Amiodarone is a antiarrhythmic drug with many side-effects which include also the induction of photosensitivity and the development of greyish-blue pigmentations on the skin exposed to light."1.29Skin side-effects of amiodarone therapy.
