Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.drugs.com/cdi/ibutilide.html

Ibutilide is a 'pure' class III antiarrhythmic drug, used intravenously against atrial flutter and fibrillation. At a cellular level it exerts two main actions: induction of a persistent Na+ current sensitive to dihydropyridine Ca2+ channel blockers and potent inhibition of the cardiac rapid delayed rectifier K+ current, by binding within potassium channel pores. In other words, Ibutilide binds to and alters the activity of hERG potassium channels, delayed inward rectifier potassium (IKr) channels and L-type (dihydropyridine sensitive) calcium channels. Ibutilide is indicated for the rapid conversion of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter of recent onset to sinus rhythm. Ibutilide is marketed as Corvert by Pfizer.

Sample Use Guides

Usual Adult Dose for Atrial Fibrillation 60 kg or more: 1 mg IV over 10 minutes; if arrhythmia persists 10 minutes after the end of the first infusion, repeat once. Less than 60 kg: 0.01 mg/kg IV over 10 minutes; if arrhythmia persists 10 minutes after the end of the first infusion, repeat once.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Ibutilide at the 10(-5) M effective refractory periods at 1 and 3 Hz increased by 18-32 ms, conduction times measured at 3 Hz increased by 27-30% and atrial rate decreased by 19-32% in isolated rabbit myocardium.
