Disopyramide

Identification

Summary

Disopyramide is a class 1A antiarrhythmic agent used to treat life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.

Brand Names
Norpace, Rythmodan
Generic Name
Disopyramide
DrugBank Accession Number
DB00280
Background

A class I anti-arrhythmic agent (one that interferes directly with the depolarization of the cardiac membrane and thus serves as a membrane-stabilizing agent) with a depressant action on the heart similar to that of guanidine. It also possesses some anticholinergic and local anesthetic properties.

Pharmacodynamics

Disopyramide is an anti-arrhythmic drug indicated for the treatment of documented ventricular arrhythmias, such as sustained ventricular tachycardia that are life-threatening. At therapeutic plasma levels, disopyramide shortens the sinus node recovery time, lengthens the effective refractory period of the atrium, and has a minimal effect on the effective refractory period of the AV node. Little effect has been shown on AV-nodal and His-Purkinje conduction times or QRS duration. However, prolongation of conduction in accessory pathways occurs.

Mechanism of action

Disopyramide is a Type 1A antiarrhythmic drug (ie, similar to procainamide and quinidine). It inhibits the fast sodium channels. In animal studies Disopyramide decreases the rate of diastolic depolarization (phase 4) in cells with augmented automaticity, decreases the upstroke velocity (phase 0) and increases the action potential duration of normal cardiac cells, decreases the disparity in refractoriness between infarcted and adjacent normally perfused myocardium, and has no effect on alpha- or beta-adrenergic receptors.

Drug Interactions
This information should not be interpreted without the help of a healthcare provider. If you believe you are experiencing an interaction, contact a healthcare provider immediately. The absence of an interaction does not necessarily mean no interactions exist.
DrugInteraction
AbacavirDisopyramide may decrease the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a higher serum level.
AbametapirThe serum concentration of Disopyramide can be increased when it is combined with Abametapir.
AbataceptThe metabolism of Disopyramide can be increased when combined with Abatacept.
AbirateroneThe serum concentration of Disopyramide can be increased when it is combined with Abiraterone.
AcarboseThe risk or severity of hypoglycemia can be increased when Disopyramide is combined with Acarbose.
Food Interactions
  • Avoid alcohol.
  • Take with or without food. The absorption is unaffected by food.
