    Full disclosure: this is a brutal topic to learn. I did my best to simplify it. Remember to pay special attention to: 1. Cardiac action potential changes 2. Main adverse drug reaction (ADR) 3. Classification (Class 1A, 1B, 1C, II, III, and IV)

    My mnemonic for class IA :queen(quinidine) die(disopyramide) fast after doing cocaine(procainamide) Class III : LOL(sotalol) till I die(ibu-til-ide, dofe-til-ide) Amigo (amiodarone) Both class mnemonic has dying part :D so they can cause torsades de points by increasing the effective refractory period (ERP) -->> QT prolongation (Action potential prolongation) For class IC: proper(propa-fenone) cane(fle-cain-ide) slaps the sodium channel the hardest but stabilizes ERP.

    Additional UWorld facts: 1) Amiodaron has partial Class 1,2 and 4 effects too. It also has an homogenous effect on K channel hence lowest risk of TdP among Class 3 agents. 2) Sotalol has partial B-cloker effect 3) B-Blockers reduce PR interval (obviously) 4) Adenosine acts on A1 receptors---->Potassium outflow--->Nodal conduction delay

    The reason you give glucagon in a beta blocker overdose is not because of the hypoglycemic masking. Glucagon stimulates cardiac ionotropy via a separate mechanism than beta blockers.

    These pneumonics also help solidify the info: For the K-Channel (Class III) he mentioned the AIDS pneumonic "Kant Kure AIDS with Potassium" Also class II - Bets Blockers Two B's / double B's = class two Calcium channel blockers Verapamil and diltiazem are the only Non-dihydropyridines in the CCB class They are "Very Different" (since they are the only two that have a significant impact on cardiac conduction / heart rate)
