flecainide and Atrial Ectopic Tachycardia

flecainide has been researched along with Atrial Ectopic Tachycardia in 9 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).

" Both the intravenous efficacy and the oral efficacy of 2 class IC antiarrhythmic drugs, encainide and flecainide, were studied in 16 patients with atrial ectopic tachycardia and in 3 patients with junctional ectopic tachycardia, using exercise testing, 24-hour long-term electrocardiography and programmed electrical stimulation."3.67Encainide versus flecainide for chronic atrial and junctional ectopic tachycardia.
