flecainide and Diabetes Mellitus

flecainide has been researched along with Diabetes Mellitus in 3 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).

Diabetes Mellitus: A heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by HYPERGLYCEMIA and GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We designed the present study to examine whether diabetes mellitus affects the antiarrhythmic effect of flecainide, a sodium channel blocker, E-4031, a potassium channel blocker, and verapamil, a calcium channel blocker, in diabetic rats."3.73Diabetes mellitus reduces the antiarrhythmic effect of ion channel blockers. ( Hayashi, Y; Ito, I; Iwasaki, M; Kamibayashi, T; Kawai, Y; Mashimo, T; Takada, K; Yamatodani, A, 2006)
"Sudden cardiac death was observed in 16 patients, 8 patients in each group."2.72Determinants of sudden cardiac death in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation in the rate control versus electrical cardioversion (RACE) study. ( Crijns, HJ; Hagens, VE; Rienstra, M; Van Gelder, IC; Van Veldhuisen, DJ, 2006)
"Amiodarone was the most widely used active compound (82%) and apparently the most effective."1.39[Predictors of reversion to sinus rhythm previous to electrical cardioversion in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation treated with anti-arrhythmic drugs]. ( Alegret, JM; Freire, F; Romero-Menor, C; Viñolas, X, 2013)
