Description | Flecainide acetate (R-818) is a class Ic antiarrhythmic agent used to prevent and treat tachyarrhythmias (abnormal fast rhythms of the heart). |
In vivo | Flecainide (acetate) is an effective antiarrhythmic agent, free of side effects and when used orally is capable of terminating and controlling relatively resistant supraventricular tachycardia in children[1]. |
Animal Research | A total of 8 infants were treated with flecainide for refractory tachyarrhythmia's. Diagnosis on electrocardiogram (ECG) was atrioventricular reentry tachycardia (AVRT) in 5, atrial ectopic tachycardia (AET) in 2, a combination of AVRT and atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) in 1. All patients had failed trial of antiarrhythmic drugs prior to presentation: digoxin and propranolol in 7, amiodarone in 3, cardioversion in 1. Flecainide (80-130 mg/m(2) orally) resulted in termination of the tachycardia in all 8 patients. Acute pharmacological termination of arrhythmia occurred with oral flecainide loading in 1 and temporarily with intravenous esmolol loading in 1 patient. Adjuvant therapy in form of propranolol was used in 5 and digoxin in 2. There were no side effects noted. Four episodes of recurrence were noted in 3 patients over 2 years, all of which responded to dose increase. Mean follow up time is 24.75 months[1]. |
