Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The clinical relevance of changes in pharmacokinetics of oral mexiletine (600 mg daily dose) was studied in 82 patients with ventricular arrhythmias and impaired liver, renal or heart function (control group n = 51, patients with liver cirrhosis n = 9, with renal insufficiency n = 14, or heart failure n = 8)."3.66Increase of mexiletine plasma levels due to delayed hepatic metabolism in patients with chronic liver disease.
