Brevibloc 2,5 g/250 ml, infusion solution

( ARTG ) Supraventricular Tachycardia - for the rapid control of ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter in perioperative, postoperative, or other emergent circumstances where short term control of ventricular rate with a short-acting agent is desirable. Esmolol is also indicated in non-compensatory sinus tachycardia where, in the physician's judgement, the rapid heart rate requires specific intervention. Esmolol is not intended for use in chronic settings where transfer to another agent is anticipated, or for treatment periods greater than 24 hours duration.
