(verify) Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic medication used to treat and prevent a number of types of irregular heartbeats. This includes ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF), and wide complex tachycardia, as well as atrial fibrillation and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
Amiodarone is used to treat heart arrhythmias. An arrhythmia is an irregularity in your heartbeat which causes your heart to miss a beat, beat irregularly or beat at the wrong speed. Amiodarone is particularly helpful when other medicines used for the treatment of arrhythmias are unsuitable for some reason. Amiodarone works by correcting the rhythm of your heart and by slowing your heart if it is beating too fast. It will be prescribed for you by a heart specialist doctor.
