Paroxetine‐induced QTc prolongation
There have been only two previous reports of paroxetine-induced corrected QT (QTc) prolongation on electrocardiogram (ECG). Here, we report a 43-year-old woman with QTc prolongation (476 ms). She had taken 50 mg of paroxetine for 17 days. Three days after discontinuation of paroxetine, QTc returned to within the normal limits (396 ms). Paroxetine blocks the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HER...
متن کاملKetamine-induced QTc interval prolongation
Sir, Ketamine is a noncompetitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. It is widely used as a dissociative anesthetic and is also used as an adjunct in pain management, particularly in opioid-tolerant patients. It blocks calcium channels and depresses sodium channel function as well as having anticholinergic effects. It inhibits the re-uptake of the catecholamines and may hav...
متن کاملProlongation of QTc and Risk of Stroke
Results The risk of incident stroke in study participants with prolonged QTcFram was almost 3 times the risk in those with normal QTcFram (hazard ratio [HR] [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 2.88 [2.12 to 3.92], p 0.0001). After adjustment for demographics (age, race, and sex), traditional stroke risk factors (antihypertensive medication use, systolic blood pressure, current smoking, diabetes, le...
متن کاملImpact of ABCB1 allelic variants on QTc interval prolongation.
PURPOSE Although the ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) drug transporter is a constituent of several blood-tissue barriers (i.e., blood-brain and blood-nerve), its participation in a putative blood-heart barrier has been poorly explored. ABCB1 could decrease the intracardiac concentrations of drugs that cause QT prolongation and cardiotoxicity. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN ABCB1-related romidepsin transport kinet...
متن کاملGender difference in QTc prolongation of people with mental disorders
BACKGROUND: We examined gender difference in QTc interval distribution and its related factors in people with mental disorders. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed medical charts of patients discharged from a university psychiatric unit between November 1997 and December 2000. Subjects were 328 patients (145 males and 183 females) taking psychotropics at their admission. We examined patient ch...
