Title: Protective effects of Na salicylate against digoxin- and BaCl2-induced arrhythmias in guinea-pigs. Author: Brasch H. Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1984 Feb 17; 98(2):297-301. PubMed ID: 6714313. Abstract: In pentobarbital-anaesthetized (60 mg/kg i.p.) guinea-pigs injections of Na salicylate (50 and 100 mg/kg i.v.) had a protective effect against arrhythmias induced by digoxin or BaCl2. A lower (25 mg/kg) and a higher (200 mg/kg) dose exerted no clearcut antiarrhythmic effect. Plasma concentrations of Na salicylate up to 1 mg/ml influenced neither the heart rate nor the ECG parameters. The antiarrhythmic effect of the drug may be explained by an inhibition of cardiac cyclooxygenase.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
