Amiodarone, an antiarrhythmic drug approved for controlling life-threatening recurrent ventricular arrhythmias, is marketed as Cordarone and Pacerone.
Examples of these drugs include the heart medications such as Pacerone and Cordarone.
Numerous promotional materials for Pacerone (amiodarone HCl) tablets were deemed lacking in fair balance due to failure to provide risk information, an overstatement of indications in wording that suggested use as a first-line agent to treat life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, misrepresentations of efficacy and an inadequate context for statements regarding possible economic benefit.
