Resumo: There are no controlled clinical trials evaluating drug therapy in patients with ventricular arrhythmias and chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy. Empirical treatment with disopyramide (400-1,000mg/d), phenytoin (4-6mg/d), mexiletine (600-1,200mg/d), propafenone (900mg/d), amiodarone ( loading: 1,000mg/d, 10-14 days; maintenance 200-600mg/d), and sotalol (320mg/d) had efficacy and tolerance ranging from 18% to 90% with heterogeneous criteria for efficacy definition. Further studies with homogenous criteria are required to determine which is the most appropriate drug therapy for patients with chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy and ventricular arrhythmias.

Foram testadas disopiramida (400-1.000 mg/dia), difenil hidantoína (4-6 mg/kg/dia), mexiletine (600-1.200 mg/d), propafenona (900 mg/d), amiodarona (impregnação: 1.000 mg/dia/ 10-14 dias; manutenção: 200-600 mg/d) e sotalol (320 mg/dia) com níveis de eficácia e tolerância variando de 18 a 90% dependendo das definições empregadas. Estudos comparativos controlados poderão esclarecer futuramente as melhores estratégias farmacológicas para o tratamento dessa entidade nosológica.Escola Paulista de Medicina Clinical Cardiac ElectrophysiologyUNIFESP, EPM, Clinical Cardiac ElectrophysiologySciELOAssociação Paulista de Medicina - APMUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)De Paola, Angelo Amato Vincenzo [UNIFESP]Gondin, Fernando Antonio Aquino [UNIFESP]Hara, Vanderlei [UNIFESP]Mendonça, Alayde [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:24:28Z2015-06-14T13:24:28Z1995-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion858-861application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-31801995000200018São Paulo Medical Journal.
