Complete heart block following a single dose of trazodone
JL Rausch, DM Pavlinac and PE Newman
Forty minutes after receiving a single starting dose of trazodone, a
patient developed complete heart block. The case illustrates that, despite
the results of earlier studies, trazodone's effect on cardiac conduction
may be severe in individuals at risk for conduction delay.
