terfenadine and Torsade de Pointes

terfenadine has been researched along with Torsade de Pointes in 59 studies

Terfenadine: A selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist devoid of central nervous system depressant activity. The drug was used for ALLERGY but withdrawn due to causing LONG QT SYNDROME.
