Amiodarone (Cordarone, Pacerone)
Amiodarone is a prescription medication used to treat and prevent various types of irregular heartbeats, known as arrhythmias. These arrhythmias can be life-threatening, as they disrupt the normal rhythm of the heart, potentially leading to less effective pumping of blood to the body.
It belongs to the class of drugs known as antiarrhythmic.
The drug is particularly effective in treating ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia, which are severe types of arrhythmias originating in the heart’s lower chambers. It’s also sometimes used for other arrhythmias when other medications are not effective or cannot be used.
It works by blocking certain electrical signals in the heart that can cause irregular heartbeats.
It is available in both oral and injectable forms. The infection form is not available for at-home administration and is only used in hospital settings.
When taking amiodarone, it’s important to closely follow your doctor’s instructions and regularly monitor your heart rhythm.
In the United States, amiodarone is available under the following brand names:
- Pacerone
