mexiletine and Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia

mexiletine has been researched along with Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia in 3 studies

Mexiletine: Antiarrhythmic agent pharmacologically similar to LIDOCAINE. It may have some anticonvulsant properties.
mexiletine : An aromatic ether which is 2,6-dimethylphenyl ether of 2-aminopropan-1-ol.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A patient with sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia developed a second tachycardia of incessant character with alternating RR-interval and alternating QRS-complexes after treatment with amiodarone."3.68[Tachycardia with wide ventricular complexes and alternating QRS complexes and RR intervals]. ( Clément, DL; François, B; Jordaens, L, 1990)
"Mexiletine was confirmed to preferentially depress conduction in the diseased myocardium at the VT origin, and this action occurred at a higher rate during VT."1.30Does mexiletine have a preferential action (versus healthy myocardium) on the reentrant circuit of ventricular tachycardia? ( Abe, A; Aizawa, Y; Ma, M, 1997)
