sotalol has been researched along with Atrial Ectopic Beats in 2 studies
Sotalol: An adrenergic beta-antagonist that is used in the treatment of life-threatening arrhythmias.
sotalol : A sulfonamide that is N-phenylmethanesulfonamide in which the phenyl group is substituted at position 4 by a 1-hydroxy-2-(isopropylamino)ethyl group. It has both beta-adrenoreceptor blocking (Vaughan Williams Class II) and cardiac action potential duration prolongation (Vaughan Williams Class III) antiarrhythmic properties. It is used (usually as the hydrochloride salt) for the management of ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias.

| "Clinical trials suggest that sotalol and dofetilide are much more effective in preventing atrial fibrillation (AF) than in terminating it." | 3.71 | The class III antiarrhythmic drugs dofetilide and sotalol prevent AF induction by atrial premature complexes at doses that fail to terminate AF.
