What is AVA-SOTALOL used for?
AVA-SOTALOL (sotalol hydrochloride) is indicated for the treatment of documented life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias such as sustained ventricular tachycardia. AVA-SOTALOL may also be used for the treatment of patients with documented symptomatic ventricular arrhythmias when the symptoms are of sufficient severity to require treatment. Because of the proarrhythmic effects of AVA-SOTALOL, its use should be reserved for patients in whom, in the opinion of the physician, the benefit of treatment clearly outweighs the risks.
Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.
