Betapace (Sotalol): Comprehensive Information and Usage Guide

Product Description

Betapace, containing sotalol hydrochloride, is a beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent that also exhibits class III antiarrhythmic properties. This medication is primarily used to treat and prevent certain types of irregular heartbeats, specifically ventricular arrhythmias, such as sustained ventricular tachycardia. By prolonging the heart's refractory period, Betapace helps to maintain a regular heart rhythm.

Common Use

Betapace is prescribed to manage and prevent life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. It is effective in converting atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter to normal sinus rhythm and maintaining sinus rhythm after conversion. It works by regulating the electrical impulses in the heart, allowing it to beat more regularly.

Dosage and Direction

Always use Betapace exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The dosage is individualized based on the specific arrhythmia being treated, the patient's renal function, and other medical conditions.

Take Betapace orally with or without food. Consistent administration with or without food is recommended to ensure consistent absorption.
Avoid taking antacids containing aluminum or magnesium within 2 hours before or after taking Betapace, as they can interfere with its absorption.
Administer Betapace at the same time(s) each day to maintain steady blood levels and maximize its effectiveness.
Continue taking Betapace even if you feel well. Do not skip doses, as this can lead to a recurrence of arrhythmias.
If you miss a dose, skip the missed dose and take the next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose to catch up.

Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions about the correct way to take Betapace.

Storage

Store Betapace at room temperature between 68°F and 77°F (20°C and 25°C). Protect from heat, moisture, and light. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep this medication out of the reach of children and pets.

Safety Information

Contraindications: Do NOT use Betapace if:

You are allergic to sotalol or any of the inactive ingredients in Betapace.
You have severe bradycardia (slow heart rate), uncontrolled heart failure, or certain types of heart block (AV block).
You have hypokalemia (low blood potassium) or hypomagnesemia (low blood magnesium).
You have severe kidney problems (renal impairment) that affect drug clearance.
You have a history of asthma or other reactive airway diseases.
You are currently taking cisapride, dofetilide, or other medications known to prolong the QT interval.

Precautions: Inform your doctor if you have:

A history of heart failure or other heart conditions.
Kidney problems or are undergoing dialysis.
Diabetes, as Betapace can mask the symptoms of hypoglycemia.
Thyroid problems, as Betapace can mask the symptoms of hyperthyroidism.
Breathing problems such as COPD or emphysema.
A personal or family history of Long QT syndrome.
Are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.

Drug Interactions:

Betapace can interact with several medications. Inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking, especially:

Other antiarrhythmic drugs (e.g., amiodarone, quinidine, procainamide).
Calcium channel blockers (e.g., verapamil, diltiazem).
Digoxin.
Diuretics (water pills) that can lower potassium levels (e.g., furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide).
Insulin and oral antidiabetic medications.
Beta-agonists (e.g., albuterol).
Certain antidepressants (e.g., tricyclic antidepressants, SSRIs).

This is not an exhaustive list of all potential drug interactions.

Important Safety Information:

Betapace may cause dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting, especially when you first start taking it or when the dosage is increased. Be cautious when driving or operating machinery until you know how Betapace affects you.
Avoid sudden discontinuation of Betapace, as this can lead to a rebound increase in heart rate and blood pressure, potentially causing serious cardiac events. Your doctor will gradually reduce the dosage over several weeks.
Limit alcohol consumption while taking Betapace, as alcohol can enhance its sedative effects.
Inform your doctor or dentist that you are taking Betapace before undergoing any medical or dental procedures, especially if anesthesia is involved.
Regular monitoring of kidney function, electrolytes (potassium, magnesium), and heart rhythm (ECG) may be necessary while taking Betapace.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, discuss the potential risks and benefits of using Betapace with your doctor. Betapace can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing infant. Therefore, breastfeeding is not recommended while taking Betapace.
