            Bradycardia <50 bpm

            QTc interval >500 ms or PR interval >280 ms

            Coadministration with drugs that prolong QT interval may cause torsade de Pointes-type ventricular tachycardia (eg, phenothiazine, TCAs, macrolide antibiotics, class I and III antiarrhythmic agents [amiodarone, flecainide, propafenone, quinidine, disopyramide, dofetilide, sotalol])

            Liver toxicity related to previous use of amiodarone

            Severe hepatic impairment (ie, Child-Pugh Class C)

            Pregnancy (category X)

            Breastfeeding women

            Cautions

            Increased risk of stroke, particularly in first two weeks of therapy; should only be initiated in patients in sinus rhythm who are receiving appropriate antithrombotic therapy

            Cases of interstitial lung disease including pneumonitis and pulmonary fibrosis reported; onset of dyspnea or non-productive cough may be related to pulmonary toxicity; carefully evaluate patients clinically; if pulmonary toxicity confirmed, discontinue therapy

            Postmarketing cases of increased INR with or without bleeding events have been reported in warfarin-treated patients initiated on dronedarone; monitor INR after initiating in patients taking warfarin

            Potassium levels should be within normal range prior to administration of therapy and maintained in normal range during administration; increased risk of hypomagnesemia/hypokalemia with potassium-depleting diuretics

            Dronedarone induces moderate prolongation of the QT interval; monitor; if QTc Bazett interval is ≥500 ms, discontinue therapy

            Marked increase in serum creatinine, prerenal azotemia, and acute renal failure, often in the setting of heart failure or hypovolemia, reported; typically reversible when drug discontinued; monitor renal function

            Small increase in SCr following initiation; elevation has a rapid onset, reaches plateau after 7 days, and is reversible upon discontinuation

            Women of childbearing potential must exercise caution while on therapy and must be counseled on appropriate contraceptive choices

            Heart failure

            • New onset or worsening of heart failure has been reported during treatment in postmarketing setting; in a placebo-controlled study in patients with permanent AF increased rates of heart failure were observed in patients with normal left ventricular function and no history of symptomatic heart failure, as well as those with a history of heart failure or left ventricular dysfunction; discontinue if new or worsening HF develops
            • Not approved for permanent atrial fibrillation (phase III PALLAS trial halted because preliminary analysis showed 2-fold increase in death, as well as 2-fold increases in stroke and hospitalization for HF)

            Hepatotoxicity

            Hepatocellular liver injury, including acute liver failure requiring transplant, reported in the postmarketing setting; advise patients to report immediately symptoms suggesting hepatic injury (such as anorexia, nausea, vomiting, fever, malaise, fatigue, right upper quadrant pain, jaundice, dark urine, or itching)

            Consider obtaining periodic hepatic serum enzymes, especially during the first 6 months of treatment; not known whether routine periodic monitoring of serum enzymes will prevent development of severe liver injury; if hepatic injury suspected, promptly discontinue therapy and test serum enzymes, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase, as well as serum bilirubin, to establish whether there is liver injury

            If liver injury is found, institute appropriate treatment and investigate the probable cause; do not restart therapy in patients without another explanation for observed liver injury

            Pregnancy & Lactation

            Pregnancy

            Therapy may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman; there are no available data on use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects or miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes; advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus

            Verify that females of reproductive potential are not pregnant prior to initiating therapy

            Advise female patients of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for 5 days after final dose

            Animal data

            • In animal studies, dronedarone administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during period of organogenesis caused multiple visceral (rats) and skeletal malformations (rats and rabbits) when administered at doses equivalent to or lower than maximum recommended human dose (MRHD)

            Lactation

            There are no available data on presence of dronedarone in human milk, effects on breastfed infant, or on milk production; dronedarone and its metabolites are present in rat milk

            During a prenatal and postnatal study in rats, maternal dronedarone administration was associated with minor reduced body-weight gain in the offspring

            When a drug is present in animal milk, likely that the drug will be present in human milk; because of potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants like the adverse effects in adults, (liver injury, and pulmonary toxicity), advise patients not to breastfeed during treatment and for 5 days (about 6 half-lives) after last dose

            Pregnancy Categories

            A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.

            B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk.

            C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done.

            D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk.

            X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist.

            Pharmacology

            Mechanism of Action

            Unknown; noniodinated antiarrhythmic agent structurally related to amiodarone; has properties belonging to all 4 Vaughn-Williams antiarrhythmic classes

            Blocks sodium channels, blocks beta1-adrenergic site, and alters adenyl cyclase generation (ie, negative inotropic effects); blocks potassium channels (eg, hERG) and therefore prolongs cardiac repolarization

            Absorption

            Bioavailability: 4% (without food); 15% (with high-fat meal)

            Peak plasma time: 3-6 hr (including major active metabolite); at steady state: 2.6-4.5 hr

            Distribution

            Protein bound: >98%

            Vd: 1400 L (steady state)

            Metabolism

            CYP3A4 (extensive)

            Initial metabolic pathway includes N-debutylation to form active N-debutyl metabolite, oxidative deamination to form the inactive propanoic acid metabolite, and direct oxidation

            Metabolites undergo further metabolism to yield over 30 uncharacterized metabolites; N-debutyl metabolite exhibits pharmacodynamic activity (1/10 to 1/3 as potent as dronedarone)

            Elimination

            Half-life, elimination: 13-19 hr

            Clearance: 130-150 L/hr

            Excretion: Feces (84%); urine (6%)

            USES: This medication is used if you have had certain types of irregular heartbeat (paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation) in the past but now have a normal heart rhythm. It helps you keep a normal heart rhythm and lowers your chance of having to go to the hospital for atrial fibrillation. Dronedarone is known as an antiarrhythmic drug.This medication should not be used if you have permanent atrial fibrillation because of the increased risk of very serious side effects. See also Warning section.
