  • Title: Cardiac arrhythmias in the elderly: antiarrhythmic drug treatment.
    Author: Nestico PF, Morganroth J.
    Journal: Cardiol Clin; 1986 May; 4(2):285-303. PubMed ID: 3085932.
    Abstract:
    The frequency of ventricular arrhythmias increases with age. Several factors make elderly people more prone to antiarrhythmic drug toxicity. Familiarity with the changes in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antiarrhythmic agents may reduce or prevent adverse response in this patient population.
