flecainide and Hyperpotassemia

flecainide has been researched along with Hyperpotassemia 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).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Flecainide was associated with excess mortality distributed virtually equally throughout the period of the Cardiac Arrhythmia Suppression Trial, suggesting the intersection of two events, drug effect and perhaps ischemia."3.69Flecainide and the electrophysiologic matrix: the effects of flecainide acetate on the determinants of cardiac excitability in sheep Purkinje fibers. ( Arnsdorf, MF; Sawicki, GJ, 1996)
"Flecainide is a commonly used IC antiarrhythmic."1.72Wide complex tachycardia in dialysis patients is not always hyperkalemia. ( Hakmeh, W; Hoang, K; Pazderka, P, 2022)
