ANTI-ARRHYTHMICS DRUGS - CARDIOVASCULAR DRUGS (2/7)
Class l Na+ Channel Blocker Block voltage gated Na+ channel like local anesthetics..slow the rate of rise of Phase 0. High affinity for Active & Inactive channels..little effect on resting..decrease excitability & conduction velocity.. Cause Pro-Arrhthymic effects…… QT interval prolongation. Use- Dependance Class l bind to open or inactivated sodium channel than are fully repolarized…show great degree of blockade during depolarizing stage Block the cell discharging at high frequency without interfering normal mal one S.E=anticholinergic side effects like dry mouth, urinary retention,constipation etc Class lB = decrease Duration of Action Potential…rapidly interact with Na+ channel..little effect on Rate of Depolarization Lidocaine= Class lB drug...Local Anesthetic..Shorten Phase 3 repolarization.. T.E=used in Ventrical Arrhythmia in Myocardial Infarction(M.I)… S.E=Slurred speech, Paresthesia, Convulsion, Cradiac Arrhythmia Mexiletine ...
