What are the mechanisms of Class IA drugs? Used for?
|
Sa channel blockade
K channel blockade Decreased conduction velocity (QRS widening) Prolong repolarization (QT prolongation) Used for Afib and ventricular arrhythmias |
|
A/e of IA?
|
GI: N/v/d
Fever hypotension Tinnitis, blurred vision, headache |
|
Mechansisms of Class IB?
|
Na channel blockade
Decreased conduction velocity Shorten repolarization (shorten QT) Used for prevention and termination of ventricular arrhythmias |
|
A/e of IB?
|
GI
agranulocytosis Diplopia drowsiness |
|
Mechanisms of IC?
|
Na channel blockade
Decreased conduction velocity (QRS widening) |
|
Inidcations for IC?
|

|
|
A/e of IC?
|
CNS
HA Bradycardia Proarrhythmia (vtach) N/v |

Indication and mechanism of class III?
|
Indicated for A fib and ventricular arrhythmias to convert to NSR.
K-channel blockade Prolongs repolarization (QT) |
