Abstract
Methods, compositions, dosing regimes, and routes of administration for the treatment or prevention of arrhythmias. In these methods, arrythmias (e.g. atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, early afterdepolarizations and prolongation of QT interval) may be reduced or eliminated by administering ion channel modulating compounds to a subject in need thereof. The ion channel modulating compounds may be cycloalkylamine ether compounds, particularly cyclohexylamine ether compounds. Also described are compositions of ion channel modulating compounds and drugs which induce early afterdepolarizations, prolongation of QT interval and/or Torsades de Pointes.
