CORDARONE 150MG-3ML AMP 6PCS
Product Overview
CORDARONE 150MG-3ML AMP 6PCS contains Amiodarone Hydrochloride, a powerful antiarrhythmic agent specifically designed for the treatment and prevention of severe, life-threatening heart rhythm disorders. This medication is administered intravenously in a controlled medical environment to help restore and maintain normal sinus rhythm.
Product Details
Each 3 mL ampoule of CORDARONE delivers 150 mg of Amiodarone Hydrochloride, a Class III antiarrhythmic drug. It works by prolonging the action potential and refractory period of cardiac cells, primarily by blocking potassium channels. This therapeutic action makes it highly effective in managing various types of ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias, ensuring better cardiac stability.
Benefits of Use
- Effectively treats and prevents severe, life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.
- Manages supraventricular arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation and flutter, especially when other treatments are ineffective or contraindicated.
- Helps restore normal sinus rhythm and prevents the recurrence of cardiac rhythm disturbances.
- A crucial medication in emergency settings for acute management of unstable arrhythmias.
How to Use
CORDARONE 150MG-3ML solution for injection is strictly for intravenous administration and should only be handled by qualified healthcare professionals.
- Administer CORDARONE in a hospital setting with continuous electrocardiographic (ECG) and blood pressure monitoring.
- The initial dose typically involves a loading infusion, followed by a maintenance infusion.
- Dosage and administration rate are individualized based on the patient's specific condition, body weight, and response to treatment.
- Always refer to the official prescribing information and consult with a medical professional for precise dosage and administration protocols.
- Ensure the solution is clear and free from particulate matter before administration. Do not mix with other medications unless compatibility is confirmed.
Caution & Warnings
- • Requires constant medical supervision during and after administration due to potential for serious adverse effects.
- • Contraindicated in patients with severe sinus bradycardia, sinoatrial block, and second- or third-degree atrioventricular block without a pacemaker.
- • May cause significant pulmonary toxicity (e.g., interstitial pneumonitis, pulmonary fibrosis), hepatic dysfunction, and thyroid abnormalities.
- • Can cause hypotension (low blood pressure) and bradycardia (slow heart rate), particularly with rapid intravenous administration.
- • Caution is advised when used concurrently with other drugs that prolong the QT interval or cause bradycardia.
- • Protect the ampoules from light and store below 25°C. Do not freeze.
- • Not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless the potential benefits outweigh the risks, and under strict medical guidance.
