Alerts clinicians to monitor ECG in trazodone overdose; hypothesis-generating for cardiotoxicity in patients without cardiovascular disease.
Service et al. (2008) conducted a case report in Acute trazodone overdose (n=1). Acute trazodone overdose was evaluated on QT prolongation and delayed atrioventricular nodal conduction. Acute trazodone overdose caused significant QT prolongation and delayed atrioventricular nodal conduction in a young woman without established cardiovascular disease.
