Abstract EN
Arrhythmia is a disease that is caused by abnormal electrical activity in the heart rate or rhythm.
It is the major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Although several antiarrhythmic drugs have been used in clinic for decades, their application is often limited by their adverse effects.
As a result, natural drugs, which have fewer side effects, are now being used to treat arrhythmias.
We searched for all articles on the role of biologically active ingredients from natural drug treatments for arrhythmias in different mechanisms in PubMed.
This study reviews 19 natural drug therapies, with 18 active ingredient therapies, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, quinones, and terpenes, and two kinds of traditional Chinese medicine compound (Wenxin-Keli and Shensongyangxin), all of which have been studied and reported as having antiarrhythmic effects.
The primary focus is the proposed antiarrhythmic mechanism of each natural drug agent.
Conclusion.
We stress persistent vigilance on the part of the provider in discussing the use of natural drug agents to provide a solid theoretical foundation for further research on antiarrhythmia drugs.
