fluoxetine and Electrocardiogram QT Prolonged

fluoxetine has been researched along with Electrocardiogram QT Prolonged in 18 studies

Fluoxetine: The first highly specific serotonin uptake inhibitor. It is used as an antidepressant and often has a more acceptable side-effects profile than traditional antidepressants.
fluoxetine : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-fluoxetine. A selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), it is used (generally as the hydrochloride salt) for the treatment of depression (and the depressive phase of bipolar disorder), bullimia nervosa, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
N-methyl-3-phenyl-3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]propan-1-amine : An aromatic ether consisting of 4-trifluoromethylphenol in which the hydrogen of the phenolic hydroxy group is replaced by a 3-(methylamino)-1-phenylpropyl group.

( Baker, B; Dorian, P; Irvine, MJ; Mitchell, J; Sandor, P; Schell, C; Shapiro, C, 1997)

"Fluoxetine (Prozac) was more potent at blocking hERG 1a/1b than 1a channels, yielding a corresponding reduction in the safety margin."1.37hERG subunit composition determines differential drug sensitivity. ( Abi-Gerges, N; Holkham, H; Jones, EM; Pollard, CE; Robertson, GA; Valentin, JP, 2011)
"Fluoxetine is a potent inhibitor of CYP2D6, and imipramine is metabolized by CYP2D6."1.33QTc prolongation associated with combination therapy of levofloxacin, imipramine, and fluoxetine. ( Blackmon, CL; Nykamp, DL; Roberson, AG; Schmidt, PE, 2005)
