Gene Information

Application

(±)-Sotalol hydrochloride has been used to test its effect on the cardiac action potential (AP) in human hearts. It has also been used as an β- blocker to determine its effect on free intracellular calcium (Ca2+) release and whole-cell currents in mammalian cancer cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sotalol has a potential to block non-cardioselective β-adrenergic receptors. It acts as an anti-arrhythmic agent and is used as a therapeutic for equine arrhythmias. In addition, sotalol also has an ability to stop atrial fibrillation recurrence.
Potent β-adrenoceptor antagonist; class III antiarrhythmic; prolongs the action potential and increases the refractory period.
