Risk Evaluation of Azithromycin-Induced QT Prolongation in Real-World Practice

14 Oct 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Azithromycin exposure has been reported to increase the risk of QT prolongation and cardiovascular death. However, findings on the association between azithromycin and cardiovascular death are controversial, and azithromycin is still used in actual practice. Additionally, quantitative assessments of risk have not been performed, including the risk of QT prolongation when patients are exposed to...
