Verapamil does not have the best effect on which kind of arrhythmia, Verapamil is usually used to treat tachyarrhythmia, the specific use of the drug need to follow the doctor’s instructions.
Verapamil tablets are used to treat angina pectoris, arrhythmia, and essential hypertension. Verapamil can cause adverse effects such as atrioventricular block, sinus bradycardia, sinus arrest and sudden cardiac arrest. Constipation, bloating, nausea and other discomforts often occur.
This drug is contraindicated in acute myocardial infarction complicated by bradycardia, cardiogenic shock, atrial flutter or atrial fibrillation coexisting with preexcitation syndrome, left heart failure, hypotension, sick sinus syndrome, severe cardiac conduction dysfunction, congestive heart failure, etc. This drug should not be taken with grapefruit juice, and concomitant intravenous administration of beta-blockers should be avoided.
Verapamil is a class IV antiarrhythmic drug, a calcium channel blocker, reduces calcium inward flow, reduces the rate of depolarization of the heart, reduces sinus node autoregulation, slows down the heart rate, and also slows down cardiac conduction, and is suitable for the treatment of tachyarrhythmias of supraventricular arrhythmia.
Rapid supraventricular arrhythmias include atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. It should be noted that calcium channel inhibitors have the effect of inhibiting myocardial contraction and should not be used when combined with cardiac insufficiency or myocardial infarction.
If arrhythmia, or panic palpitations and other discomforts occur, do not self-diagnose and treat, and should seek medical treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition.
