class/moa of flecainide and propafenone
Class I Antiarrhythmic: Sodium channel blockers, with Propafenone having a small beta blocker effect. Significant decrease in conduction velocity and automaticity.
FlecaiNide and propafeNoNe

class nad moa of ibutilide, dofetilide, dronedarone, amiodarone, sotalol
Class III Antiarrhythmic: Prolongation of the myocardial cell-action potential duration and refractory period, and noncompetitive alpha and beta inhibition. Blockade of Potassium channels.

whihc of the four classes of heart meds is the beta blockers
class 2 bb🤩

what class of heart meds are the Ca channel blockers like diltazem and verapamil
class 4
Flecainide brand
tambocor
Propafenone brand
rythmol
what is svt?
Supraventricular Tachycardia— atria contracts too fast
Flecainide box warning
Mortality, Ventricular proarrhythmic effects, MI
Propafenone box warning
Likely to cause arrhythmia , reserve for life-threatening arrhythmia
which class 1 (Na channel blocking) anti-arrth is renally adjusted
flecainide
flecainide, Propafenone ad eff
"Common: Palpitations, Nausea, Dizziness, Headache, Visual Disturbances (Taste Disturbances [Metallic Taste] – Propafenone)
Serious: Prolonged QT, Cardiac dysrhythmias"
which class 1 na channel blocker causes taste disturbances
Propafenone
flecainide, Propafenone ddi
"CYP2D6 inx
QT prolonging agents
Antiarrhythmics"
what two ddrugs/ what class of antiarrythkmic is “Used as pill-in-the-pocket for patient-initiated pharmacological cardioversion of A-fib”
flecainide, Propafenone (class 1)
which two class 3 antiarrythm have renal adjustment
dofetilide, sotalol
ibutilide indication
convert afib back into normal rhythm (cardioversion)
Dofetilide ind
"A-fib
Maintenance of NSR and cardioversion to NSR" (normal sinus rhythm)
which class three antirhyh are IV

which class three antiarrth are PO (can be both IV and PO)
Amiodarone
Sotalol
Dofetilide
Dronedarone
Ibutilide brand
Life-Threatening Arrhythmia, Confirm Benefit of Maintaining NSR Outweighs the Risk of Therapy
how is dofetidlide box warning related to LOCATION?
Initiate or reinitiate in the hospital
how are the Class III drugs different from one another
ibu/dofe: only K, dof more acute
drone/amiodarone: block Na, K, Ca channels and beta blocker
sotalol: K blocker and beta blocker
why dronedarone made?
“safer amiodarone”— no iodine so less thyroid toxciity
ibutilide ad eff
Serious: Bradyarrhythmia, Prolonged QT Interval (TdP), Hypotension, Headache
