AB Quinidine,  procainamide  (Pronestyl),  and  disopyramide  (Norpace)  are  type  Ia  antiarrhythmic  agents.  Quinidine  and  procainamide  are  used  commonly  for  suppression  of  supraventricular  and  ventricular  arrhythmias.  Disopyramide  is  used  for  ventricular  arrhythmias.  All  three  agents  have  a  low  toxic-to-therapeutic  ratio  and  may  produce  fatal  intoxication  (Table  II–51).  See  the  description  of  other  antiarrhythmic  agents  in  Amphetamines.
