Amiodarone Adverse Effects

  • Bradycardia
  • Hypotension with older solvent-based formulation. Uncommon with newer aqueous formulation.
  • Prolonged QT
  • Thyrotoxicosis[1]
    • Between 5-20% of patients treated with amiodarone have thyrotoxicosis (higher in areas of iodine deficiency)
  • Iodine-induced hyperthyroidism
    • It is thought that the iodine load may unmask hyperthyroidism in patients with multinodular goiter and subclinical Graves’ disease
  • Drug-induced destructive thyroiditis
    • More commonly, the cytotoxic effects of amiodarone destroy thyroid cells, resulting in a release of preformed hormone.
  • Amiodarone pulmonary toxicity
  • Hyperpigmentation rash
