Unnecessary delay in tricyclic antidepressant treatment of a patient with atrial fibrillation.

R A Remick, C Froese.   

Abstract

Atrial fibrillation and other cardiac conduction disturbances are not contraindications for the use of tricyclic antidepressants. A case in which physician unfamiliarity with these facts led to an unnecessary delay in the antidepressant treatment of a patient with depression and long-standing atrial fibrillation is presented.
