Sotalol hydrochloride, the active ingredient in Soritmik, is a non-selective beta-blocker with Class III antiarrhythmic properties. It prolongs the action potential duration and refractory period in cardiac tissues, leading to its antiarrhythmic effects. Studies have shown that sotalol is effective in reducing the recurrence of ventricular arrhythmias and maintaining sinus rhythm in atrial fibrillation.

Pharmacological Effects: Sotalol hydrochloride exerts its pharmacological action by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors in the heart, leading to a decrease in heart rate and contractility. Additionally, its Class III antiarrhythmic properties help in the management of various types of arrhythmias.
Clinical Trials: Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of sotalol in reducing the frequency of ventricular arrhythmias and improving the quality of life in patients with arrhythmias. Comparative studies have shown sotalol to be as effective as other antiarrhythmic agents with a favorable safety profile.
