Description
(extracted from source data)
METABOLISM Amiodarone is extensively metabolized in the liver via CYP2C8 (under 1% unchanged in urine), and can effect the metabolism of numerous other drugs. The major metabolite of amiodarone, desethylamiodarone (DEA), also exhibits antiarrhythmic properties.
DESCRIPTION Amiodarone is a class III antiarrhythmic drug and acts as a positive inotropic agent. The prescription drug contains amiodarone hydrochloride (PubChem CID 441325). (GtoPdb)
PHARMACODYNAMICS Amiodarone belongs to a class of drugs called Vaughan-Williams Class III antiarrhythmic agents. It is used in the treatment of a wide range of cardiac tachyarhthmias, including both ventricular and supraventricular (atrial) arrhythmias. After intravenous administration in man, amiodarone relaxes vascular smooth muscle, reduces peripheral vascular resistance (afterload), and slightly increases cardiac index. Amiodarone prolongs phase 3 of the cardiac action potential. It also mediates effects that are similar to those of antiarrhythmic classes Ia, II, and IV. Amiodarone shows beta blocker-like and calcium channel blocker-like actions on the SA and AV nodes, increases the refractory period via sodium- and potassium-channel effects, and slows intra-cardiac conduction of the cardiac action potential, via sodium-channel effects.
DESCRIPTION alpha and beta adrenoceptor agonist; inhibits binding of 1,4-dihydropyridine to L-type Ca2+ channels; coronary vasodilator (LOPAC library)
DESCRIPTION Amiodarone HCl is a sodium/potassium-ATPase inhibitor and an autophagy activator, used to treat various types of cardiac dysrhythmias. (BOC Sciences Bioactive Compounds)
