triamterene and Arrhythmia

triamterene has been researched along with Arrhythmia in 14 studies

Triamterene: A pteridinetriamine compound that inhibits SODIUM reabsorption through SODIUM CHANNELS in renal EPITHELIAL CELLS.
triamterene : Pteridine substituted at positions 2, 4 and 7 with amino groups and at position 6 with a phenyl group. A sodium channel blocker, it is used as a diuretic in the treatment of hypertension and oedema.

"Triamterene therapy was evaluated in 35 patients with congestive heart failure over a period of two and one-half years."7.64CLINICAL EXPERIENCE WITH A NEW DIURETIC, TRIAMTERENE, IN CONJESTIVE HEART FAILURE. ( LAUFER, ST; MAHABIR, RN, 1964)
"In the majority of hypertensive patients, treatment with 50 mg/d of hydrochlorothiazide does not cause marked hypokalemia or ventricular arrhythmias."5.07Diuretics, serum and intracellular electrolyte levels, and ventricular arrhythmias in hypertensive men. ( Black, DM; Cheitlin, MD; Fine, R; Hearst, N; Hulley, SB; Sebastian, A; Seeley, DG; Siegel, D, 1992)
"Nineteen men with mild to moderate hypertension and without a history of cardiac arrhythmias were randomized (double-blind) into groups to receive hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) at a dose of 25 mg/day, HCTZ at 50 mg/day, or HCTZ (25 mg) plus triamterene (50 mg) for a six-month period after a three-week (single-blind) placebo period."5.06Incidence of cardiac arrhythmias associated with mild hypokalemia induced by low-dose diuretic therapy for hypertension. ( Hamilton, BP; Hamilton, J; Peters, RW, 1989)
"The antiarrhythmic effects of 4 pteridine analogues, 2 of which are potassium-sparing diuretics, triamterene (2, 4, 7-triamino-6-phenylpteridine) and [2-phenyl-4, 7 diaminopteridine-6-(N-diethylaminoethyl) carboxamide] and 2 of which have no diuretic effects [2-phenyl-4, 7-diaminopteridine-6-(N-2-hydroxyethyl) carboxamide], on ouabain-induced ventricular tachycardia in intact pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs were investigated."3.65Antiarrhythmic activity of four pteridine compounds in ouabain intoxication. ( Elias, RA; Francis, JS; Gosselin, AJ; Yeh, BK, 1975)
" toxicity of digoxin is diminished by pretreatment with triamterene or amiloride; the arrhythmias and the cardiac arrest are significantly delayed in the course of an infusion of digoxin."3.65[Animal experiments on the effect of triamterene and amiloride on heart and circulation and the toxicity of digoxin (author's transl)]. ( Greeff, K; Köhler, E, 1975)
"Triamterene therapy was evaluated in 35 patients with congestive heart failure over a period of two and one-half years."3.64CLINICAL EXPERIENCE WITH A NEW DIURETIC, TRIAMTERENE, IN CONJESTIVE HEART FAILURE. ( LAUFER, ST; MAHABIR, RN, 1964)
"Pretreatment with triamterene (5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg) significantly reduces the ouabain toxicity indicated by an increase of the dose producing arrhythmia (from 61 +/- 14 to 121 +/- 17 and 178 +/- 22 micrograms/kg, resp."1.27[The antitoxic action of triamterene in cardiac glycoside poisoning].
