Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) include lifestyle modifications, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors using, potassium supplements and cardioverter-defibrillator.
Primary Prevention
Effective measures for the primary prevention of Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) include:
- Lifestyle modification if applicable
- Dietary modification if applicable
- Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors use like acetazolamide
- Preferred regimen (1): Acetazolamide adults 125-1,000 mg daily, children 5-10 mg/kg/day
- Potassium supplements
- Slow release potassium supplements may be helps with hypokalemic periodic paralysis
- Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator
- Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator is an idle choice in patients with tachycardia-induced syncope
