amiodarone and Embolism

amiodarone has been researched along with Embolism in 4 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.

Embolism: Blocking of a blood vessel by an embolus which can be a blood clot or other undissolved material in the blood stream.

"Amiodarone, the most effective antiarrhythmic drug in atrial fibrillation, inhibits apixaban and rivaroxaban elimination, thus possibly increasing anticoagulant-related risk for bleeding."8.31Risk for Bleeding-Related Hospitalizations During Use of Amiodarone With Apixaban or Rivaroxaban in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation : A Retrospective Cohort Study. ( Chung, CP; Daugherty, JR; Dickson, AL; Dupont, WD; Hung, AM; Murray, KT; Ray, WA; Smalley, W; Stein, CM; Zimmerman, E, 2023)
"Amiodarone, the most effective antiarrhythmic drug in atrial fibrillation, inhibits apixaban and rivaroxaban elimination, thus possibly increasing anticoagulant-related risk for bleeding."4.31Risk for Bleeding-Related Hospitalizations During Use of Amiodarone With Apixaban or Rivaroxaban in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation : A Retrospective Cohort Study.

" More specifically, this Mini-Hot-Topic symposium has reviewed for you: (1) the evidence supporting the new novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) as first-line therapy for prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with "nonvalvular" atrial fibrillation (NVAF); (2) the winding path taken by dronedarone in reaching its current place in our antiarrhythmic armamentarium - in which it still has a role; and (3) the contrasting decisions made with respect to the marketing of vernakalant in Europe versus the United States."3.80Are we at the goal line with the novel oral anticoagulants and have we reached the end of the line for dronedarone and vernakalant--or is there more to come?
