Does methoxamine hydrochloride terminate attacks of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia?
Methoxamine hydrochloride appears effective in rapidly terminating attacks of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia based on continuous ECG monitoring.
Chotkowski et al. (1954) conducted a case report in Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia (n=3). Methoxamine hydrochloride was evaluated on Reversion of paroxysmal to normal rhythm. Administration of methoxamine hydrochloride demonstrated a dramatic reversion of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia to normal rhythm in a matter of seconds in 3 cases.
