Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Dofetilide is a Class III antiarrhythmic agent used primarily to maintain sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation or flutter. It exerts its effect by selectively blocking the rapid component of the delayed rectifier potassium current (IK<sub>r</sub>) in cardiac myocytes, thereby prolonging action potential duration and refractoriness. Clinically, dofetilide’s bioactivity manifests as QT interval prolongation on the ECG, reducing the likelihood of recurrent atrial arrhythmias when dosed and monitored carefully.
