flecainide and Asystole

flecainide has been researched along with Asystole in 24 studies

Flecainide: A potent anti-arrhythmia agent, effective in a wide range of ventricular and atrial ARRHYTHMIAS and TACHYCARDIAS.
flecainide : A monocarboxylic acid amide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2,5-bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)benzoic acid with the primary amino group of piperidin-2-ylmethylamine. An antiarrhythmic agent used (in the form of its acetate salt) to prevent and treat tachyarrhythmia (abnormal fast rhythm of the heart).

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The Cardiac Arrhythmia Suppression Trial (CAST) was a multicenter double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to determine whether suppression of ventricular ectopic activity by means of antiarrhythmic drugs (encainide, flecainide or moricizine) after acute myocardial infarction would reduce the incidence of arrhythmic death."9.07Circadian pattern of arrhythmic death in patients receiving encainide, flecainide or moricizine in the Cardiac Arrhythmia Suppression Trial (CAST).
