This protocol included a series of precautions to be taken before and during treatment: a) review what other medications the patient is taking that could prolong the QTc; b) correct electrolyte imbalances; c) avoid bradycardia; and d) perform close electrocardiographic monitoring. ./cache/cord-281411-la8njxc1.txt ./txt/cord-281411-la8njxc1.txt
