Blood test may help Fine-Tune heart drug dosing
NCT ID NCT07487714
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether measuring amiodarone levels in the blood helps doctors choose the right dose for people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). About 80 adults will receive different daily doses (100, 200, or 400 mg) and be monitored for three months. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the return of atrial fibrillation episodes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Amiodarone
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that adjusting amiodarone dose based on blood levels improves control of atrial fibrillation with fewer side effects.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study (80 participants) and may not prove that blood monitoring is better than standard care. Amiodarone also has known risks like thyroid and lung problems.
