Resumen

GRADOS SASO, Daniel et al. Transient sinus dysfunction secondary to lacosamide treatment. CorSalud [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.2, pp.167-170. ISSN 2078-7170.

The case of an 84-year-old female patient is presented, with a history of high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, chronic venous failure and osteoarthritis, which -due to trigeminal neuralgia- had received treatment with several drugs, without achieving neuropathic pain control; that was why the treatment with lacosamide was started in monotherapy, with an increase in dose until the therapeutic objective was achieved; but the patient presented clinical manifestations and electrocardiographic alterations compatible with sinus dysfunction, which were solved after reducing the dose of the drug.

Palabras clave : Heart rhythm; Sinus dysfunction; Anticonvulsants; Lacosamide; Adverse effects.
