P F Nestico, J Morganroth.   

Abstract

The frequency of ventricular arrhythmias increases with age. Several factors make elderly people more prone to antiarrhythmic drug toxicity. Familiarity with the changes in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antiarrhythmic agents may reduce or prevent adverse response in this patient population.
