title: Arrhythmogenic assessment of prenalterol in conscious dogs.
abstract: Possible arrhythmogenic side-effects of the positive inotropic agent prenalterol were studied in conscious dogs, three to four days after coronary artery ligation. Prenalterol showed a propensity to cause arrhythmias in one out of eight dogs, thereby confirming published data from clinical studies.
