Telithromycin may cause clinically significant QTc prolongation and increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia in predisposed patients. It should not be used in patients with prolonged QT syndrome, uncorrected hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia, profound bradycardia, or in patients receiving certain antiarrhythmics (e.g., quinidine, procainamide, amiodarone) or other agents that prolong QTc (e.g., cisapride, pimozide).
