Description
Sotalol belongs to the classes of medications called antiarrhythmics and beta-blockers. It is used to treat certain types of abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). It works by changing how electrical impulses affect the heart muscle and by helping the heart to beat more regularly.
The recommended adult dose of sotalol ranges from 80 mg twice daily to 160 mg twice daily taken every 12 hours. Sotalol is best taken 1 to 2 hours before meals. The dose is usually started at the lower range and increased gradually according to your doctor’s instructions until the best dose is determined.
