disopyramide and Respiratory Tract Infections

disopyramide has been researched along with Respiratory Tract Infections in 1 studies

Disopyramide: A class I anti-arrhythmic agent (one that interferes directly with the depolarization of the cardiac membrane and thus serves as a membrane-stabilizing agent) with a depressant action on the heart similar to that of guanidine. It also possesses some anticholinergic and local anesthetic properties.
disopyramide : A monocarboxylic acid amide that is butanamide substituted by a diisopropylamino group at position 4, a phenyl group at position 2 and a pyridin-2-yl group at position 2. It is used as a anti-arrhythmia drug.

Respiratory Tract Infections: Invasion of the host RESPIRATORY SYSTEM by microorganisms, usually leading to pathological processes or diseases.

"Disopyramide was metabolized by the cytochrome enzyme CYP3A4 and clarithromycin competitively inhibits this enzyme, probably resulting in an increase in plasma concentration of disopyramide."5.30Torsades de pointes ventricular tachycardia induced by clarithromycin and disopyramide in the presence of hypokalemia. ( Hashimoto, T; Hayashi, Y; Ikeda, U; Mitsuhashi, T; Shimada, K; Watanabe, T, 1999)
