Amiodarone

Amiodarone is a medication used to treat certain types of irregular heartbeats, known as arrhythmias. It helps stabilize the heart's electrical signals, allowing it to beat more normally. Amiodarone can be effective for both rapid and slow heart rhythms and is often prescribed when other medicines haven't worked. Because it acts on multiple parts of the heart's electrical system, it requires careful monitoring for side effects, especially with long-term use. Overall, amiodarone is an important tool for managing serious arrhythmias, improving symptoms and reducing the risk of complications like stroke or heart failure.
