Product Information

• Name: Amiodarone N-oxide HCl
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Amiodarone N-oxide HCl is a class III antiarrhythmic drug that acts by slowing the heart rate and prolonging the time between heartbeats. It has been shown to be effective in treating atrial fibrillation, ventricular fibrillation, and atrial flutter. Amiodarone N-oxide HCl has significant cytotoxicity, which can lead to cardiomyopathy and myocardial infarcts. Due to its long half life, amiodarone can accumulate in the body and cause side effects such as pulmonary toxicity, gastrointestinal bleeding, thyroid dysfunction, or liver damage. It is not recommended for use in patients with structural heart disease or those taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) because of an increased risk of adverse events.
