What Are the Treatment Options for Heart Rate Abnormalities Due to Toxicants?
Treatment for heart rate abnormalities caused by toxicants depends on the specific substance involved. General measures include removing the source of exposure and providing supportive care. Medications such as atropine may be used to treat bradycardia, while beta-blockers or benzodiazepines might be used to manage tachycardia. In severe cases, advanced interventions like temporary pacing or antidotes may be necessary.
