Gatifloxacin-Associated Corrected QT Interval Prolongation, Torsades de Pointes, and Ventricular Fibrillation in Patients with Known Risk Factors

Drugs not commonly considered to be cardioactive agents have been reported to cause prolongation of the corrected QT interval with resultant torsades de pointes or ventricular fibrillation. We report 4 cases of gatifloxacin-associated cardiac toxicity in patients with known risk factors for this adv...
