Pharmacological β-adrenoceptor blockade can augment torsadogenic action of IKr inhibitor: Comparison of proarrhythmic effects of d-sotalol and dl-sotalol in the chronic atrioventricular block dogs

Information is still limited whether β-blockade may augment or attenuate the onset of torsade de pointes in patients with IKr inhibitor-induced labile repolarization process. We compared the proarrhythmic effects of d-sotalol with those of dl-sotalol using the chronic atrioventricular block dogs, si...
