[Differential psychopharmacotherapy of heart rhythm disorders].

Abstract

Antiarrhythmic activity of psychotropic agents, such as phenibut, eglonyl, azaphen, grandaxin, fali-lepsin, is demonstrated for the first time ever in patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation and ventricular extrasystole. It is dependent on the nature of the underlying heart disease, the psychopathologic syndrome and vegetative cardiac rhythm regulation type. Different trends of cardiac and hemodynamic change are produced by different psychopharmacologic agents. Differential long-term intermittent psychopharmacotherapy is proposed for the control of heart rhythm disorders.
