  • Title: Lithium- and carbamazepine-associated sinus node dysfunction: nine-year experience in a psychiatric hospital.
    Author: Steckler TL.
    Journal: J Clin Psychopharmacol; 1994 Oct; 14(5):336-9. PubMed ID: 7806689.
    Abstract:
    The cardiac effects of lithium and carbamazepine are considered rare, but both are known to induce sinus node dysfunction. The author presents the 9-year experience in a state mental hospital with lithium-induced sinus node dysfunction. Four of the five patients were also on carbamazepine. The clinical features of previously reported cases of lithium- and carbamazepine-associated sinus node dysfunction are reviewed. A role for carbamazepine in lithium-induced sinus node dysfunction is discussed.
