Description

Aleksandra Gorzynska-Schulz and co-authors published a case series in 2025 on a heart drug that slowed or stalled the heartbeat of two patients after heart attacks. The drug blocks platelets and is standard after such events, but it can raise levels of a chemical that slows the heart's wiring. Both patients were sixty-seven years old.

One woman suffered a full heart block with a forty-five-second pause and fainted. One man had repeated sinus pauses of up to five seconds. In both, stopping the drug and giving a countering medicine ended the problem, with no return seen. The team warns doctors to watch rhythm closely when the drug starts.
