Sodium stibogluconate and polymorphic ventricular tachycardia.
Numerous antimicrobials including pentavalent antimonials are implicated in causing prolong QT-interval and ventricular tachycardia. Torsades de pointes is rarely documented with use of sodium stibogluconate. Here is described a 12-yr-old girl with visceral leishmaniasis, who developed syncopal attacks, prolong QT-interval, polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and torsades de pointes after completing a course of Stibogluconate (20 mg/kg/day for 30 days). Prolong lidocaine infusion and cardioversion were life saving.
