    Product Description

    Dofetilide-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of dofetilide (Item No. 15045) by GC- or LC-MS. Dofetilide is a class III antiarrhythmic agent that prolongs cardiac action potential duration by selectively inhibiting the rapidly activating inward rectifying component of net delayed rectifier K+ current (IC50 = 31.5 nM in guinea pig cardiomyocytes).1 However, at 1 μM, dofetilide has pro-arrhythmic activity, inducing early afterdepolarizations (prolonged repolarization) in cell models and Torsade de Pointes in a rabbit screen for proarrhythmic properties when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg.2 Formulations containing dofetilide have been used in the treatment of highly symptomatic atrial fibrillation and the conversion of flutter to normal sinus rhythm.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
