Sintesi
Both are class I antiarrhythmics that depress cardiac conduction, so combined use can cause additive effects such as conduction delay, hypotension and proarrhythmia. Additive CNS toxicity, such as confusion or seizures, has also been described with both agents.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Lidocaine and Procainamide can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.
Perché avviene
Additive sodium channel blockade slowing cardiac conduction, with overlapping CNS toxicity.
Cosa fare
