Contraindications
Cordarone is contraindicated in patients with cardiogenic shock; severe sinus-node dysfunction, causing marked sinus bradycardia; second- or third-degree atrioventricular block; and when episodes of bradycardia have caused syncope (except when used in conjunction with a pacemaker).
Cordarone is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to the drug or to any of its components, including iodine.[1] [1]
