Initiating therapy at 80 mg with gradual upward dose titration thereafter reduces the risk of proarrhythmia. Patients suspected of developing thyrotoxicosis should be carefully managed to avoid abrupt withdrawal of beta-blockade which might be followed by the exacerbation of symptoms of hyperthyroidism, including thyroid storm.As sotalol is mainly eliminated via the kidneys the dose should be adjusted in patients with renal impairment (see section 4.2).Beta-blocking drugs have been reported rarely to exacerbate the symptoms of psoriasis vulgaris.This product contains lactose.
Hyperglycaemia may occur, and the dosage of antidiabetic drugs may require adjustment. • treatment of symptomatic non-sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Patients should be closely monitored for evidence of hypotension and/or marked bradycardia which may produce syncope. Drugs that prolong the QT-interval may cause torsades de pointes, a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia associated with prolongation of the QT-interval. In addition, if required, the following therapeutic measures are suggested: Atropine (0.5 to 2 mg IV), another anticholinergic drug, a beta-adrenergic agonist (isoprenaline, 5 microgram per minute, up to 25 microgram, by slow IV injection) or transvenous cardiac pacingAdrenaline rather than isoprenaline or noradrenaline may be useful, depending on associated factorsDC cardioversion, transvenous cardiac pacing, adrenaline, and/or magnesium sulphatePharmacotherapeutic group: beta blocking agents, non-selective, ATC Code - C07AA07D,l-sotalol is a non-selective hydrophilic β-adrenergic receptor blocking agent, devoid of intrinsic sympathomimetic activity or membrane stabilizing activity. These cardiac changes reduce myocardial oxygen consumption and cardiac work. If you want to get notified by every reply to your post, please register. phenothiazines, tricyclic antidepressants, terfenadine, astemizole or fluoroquinalones. Therefore, sotalol should be used in pregnancy only if the potential benefits outweigh the possible risk to the foetus. In addition, adverse effects (especially hypoglycaemia and bradycardia) may occur in foetus and neonate.
The adverse results of clinical trials involving antiarrhythmic drugs (i.e. Such patients may be unresponsive to the usual doses of adrenaline used to treat the allergic reaction. Specifically, it blocks the reabsorption back into the blood of sodium and water that has been filtered out of the blood by the kidneys.
Beta- blockers should be avoided in combination with cardiodepressant calcium channel blockers such as verapamil and diltiazem because of the additive effects on atrioventricular conduction and ventricular function. Sotalol is not considered as a typical beta blocker. Torsemide (Demadex) is a potent drug that's a diuretic (water pill). Patients suspected of having phaeochromocytoma and who are being treated with sotalol should have their urine screened utilizing the HPLC assay with solid phase extraction.Animal studies with sotalol hydrochloride have shown no evidence of teratogenicity or other harmful effects on the foetus. Drugs that have been associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias, particularly torsades de pointes include erythromycin IV, halofantrine, pentamidine and fluoroquinolones.
Lower doses are necessary in conditions of renal impairment (see Dosage and Administration in patients with renal dysfunction). Occasional cases of exacerbation of angina pectoris, arrhythmias, and in some cases, myocardial infarction have been reported after abrupt discontinuation of therapy.

It is eliminated from the organism fast, so you won’t feel sleepy a lot. It would be best. apparent increase in mortality) suggest that sotalol hydrochloride should be avoided in patients with left ventricular ejection fractions Excessive prolongation of the QT-interval, >500 msec, can be a sign of toxicity and should be avoided (see 'Proarrhythmias' section above).

However, if concomitant therapy is necessary, beta-agonists may have to be administered in increased dosages.The presence of sotalol in the urine may result in falsely elevated levels of urinary metanephrine when measured by photometric methods.
