amiodarone and Disease Exacerbation

amiodarone has been researched along with Disease Exacerbation in 16 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.

( Yamada, S; Yamaguchi, I, 1998)
"Amiodarone is a lipophilic drug that concentrates in the liver and usually, over a period of time, leads to toxicity related to drug accumulation."1.35Drug-induced steatohepatitis leading to cirrhosis: long-term toxicity of amiodarone use. ( Chang, C; Fiel, MI; Raja, K; Thung, SN, 2009)
" However, because the discoloration developed before surgery and was bilateral, long-term administration of amiodarone may also have played a role."1.30Progressive brown discoloration of silicone intraocular lenses after vitrectomy in a patient on amiodarone.
