Näidustused:

Propafenone hydrochloride is indicated to: - prolong the time to recurrence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation/flutter (PAF) associated with disabling symptoms in patients without structural heart disease. - prolong the time to recurrence of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) associated with disabling symptoms in patients without structural heart disease. - treat documented ventricular arrhythmias, such as sustained ventricular tachycardia that, in the judgment of the physician, are life-threatening. Initiate treatment in the hospital. Usage Considerations: - The use of propafenone hydrochloride tablets in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) or in patients exclusively with atrial flutter or PSVT has not been evaluated. Do not use propafenone hydrochloride tablets to control ventricular rate during AF. - Some patients with atrial flutter treated with propafenone have developed 1:1 conduction, producing an increase in ventricular rate. Concomitant treatment with drugs that increase the

AN INCREASED RATE OF DEATH OR REVERSED CARDIAC ARREST RATE WAS SEEN IN
SUBJECTS TREATED WITH ENCAINIDE
OR FLECAINIDE (CLASS IC ANTIARRHYTHMICS) COMPARED WITH THAT SEEN IN
SUBJECTS ASSIGNED TO PLACEBO. AT
PRESENT, IT IS PRUDENT TO CONSIDER ANY IC ANTIARRHYTHMIC TO HAVE A
SIGNIFICANT RISK OF PROVOKING
PROARRHYTHMIC EVENTS IN PATIENTS WITH STRUCTURAL HEART DISEASE.
GIVEN THE LACK OF ANY EVIDENCE THAT THESE DRUGS IMPROVE SURVIVAL,
ANTIARRHYTHMIC AGENTS SHOULD
GENERALLY BE AVOIDED IN PATIENTS WITH NON-LIFE-THREATENING VENTRICULAR
ARRHYTHMIAS, EVEN IF THE PATIENTS
ARE EXPERIENCING UNPLEASANT, BUT NOT LIFE-THREATENING, SYMPTOMS OR
SIGNS.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Propafenone hydrochloride is an antiarrhythmic indicated to:
prolong the time to recurrence of symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF)
in patients with episodic (most likely paroxysmal or
persistent) AF who do not have structural heart disease. (1)
prolong the time to recurrence of paroxysmal supraventricular
tachycardia (PSVT) associated with disabling symptoms
in patients who do not have structural heart disease. (1)
treat documented life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. (1)
USAGE CONSIDERATIONS:
Use in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation or with atrial
flutter or PSVT has not been evaluated. Do not use to
control ventricular rate during atrial fibrillation. (1)
In patients with atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter, use
propafenone hydrochloride with drugs that increase the
atrioventricular nodal refractory period. (1)
Because of proarrhythmic effects, use
