nifedipine and Long QT Syndrome

nifedipine has been researched along with Long QT Syndrome in 10 studies

Nifedipine: A potent vasodilator agent with calcium antagonistic action. It is a useful anti-anginal agent that also lowers blood pressure.

Long QT Syndrome: A condition that is characterized by episodes of fainting (SYNCOPE) and varying degree of ventricular arrhythmia as indicated by the prolonged QT interval. The inherited forms are caused by mutation of genes encoding cardiac ion channel proteins. The two major forms are ROMANO-WARD SYNDROME and JERVELL-LANGE NIELSEN SYNDROME.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A 60-year-old man receiving nifedipine was admitted in a comatose condition 3 h after ingesting 5,000 mg of eperisone and 2."3.76A case of torsades de pointes induced by severe QT prolongation after an overdose of eperisone and triazolam in a patient receiving nifedipine. ( Amino, M; Inokuchi, S; Morita, S; Saito, T; Yamagiwa, T; Yamamoto, R, 2010)
"Ondansetron is a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist commonly prescribed to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery but may increase the risk of developing prolongation of the QT interval of the electrocardiogram, which can lead to an abnormal and potentially fatal heart rhythm and recently raised FDA concerns and warnings."1.38Nifedipine blocks ondansetron electrophysiological effects in rabbit purkinje fibers and decreases early after depolarization incidence. ( Gerard, JL; Hanouz, JL; Lemoine, S; Plaud, B; Puddu, PE; Rouet, R; Salle, L; Worou, ME, 2012)
