If you prescribe for patients with arrhythmias, you will want to keep this valuable paperback close at hand. The Second Edition of this valuable reference responds to changes in the available mediations as well as in the way they are currently used.

The book reviews everything you need to understand and prescribe today's antiarrhythmic drugs:

* mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias and how antiarrhythmic drugs alter those arrhythmias, including common adverse effects
* which factors to consider in using these drugs for treatment of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias, ventricular arrhythmias, and arrhythmias in pregnancy
* a detailed review of atrial fibrillation to help you make decisions for patient management in this complicated area

Dr. Fogoros considers all the most recent drugs, plus promising drugs under investigation, to give you a full picture of therapeutic options. With Antiarrhythmic Drugs: A Practical Guide, Second Edition, you will have dependable information on how each drug works and when each one is indicated so you can give your patients the best possible treatment.
