Abstract
In 19 patients with different supraventricular tachycardias the antiar rhythmic drug AWD-G256 was studied to investigate the effects on hemod ynamic parameters. Over all, stroke volume, pulmonary pressure and sys temic blood pressure were not significantly altered. The only main adv erse effect was a transient rise of serum transaminases in two patient s. We conclude that AWD-G256 is usually hemodynamically tolerated, but the antiarrhythmically effective dosage is not reached yet.
