एस्मोलोल और क्विनिडिन का इंटरैक्शन

Proarrhythmic effects Like many other drugs (including all other Class Ia antiarrhythmics), quinidine prolongs the QT c interval, and this can lead to torsades de pointes , a life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia (see OVERDOSAGE ).

The effects (if any) of coadministration of other β-blockers on quinidine pharmacokinetics have not been adequately studied.

Coadministration of propranolol usually does not affect quinidine pharmacokinetics, but in some studies the β-blocker appeared to cause increases in the peak serum levels of quinidine, decreases in quinidine's volume of distribution, and decreases in total quinidine clearance.
