Abstract
Amiodarone was sequestered to a great extent by the intravenously administered lipids in plasma, which completely prevented the decrease in arterial blood pressure caused by amiodarone infusion. Further studies are needed to evaluate the clinical usefulness of intravenous lipid emulsion as an antidote in amiodarone overdoses.
