Class 1 Class IC drugs slow impulses conduction velocity but have little effect on refractioniness. They are used to reduce or elimainate tychydyrhythmias assoiced with reentry. their significant prodysrhythmic effects limit their usefulness, but they may be used to reate superentricular tychardia
Class I drugs are considered
Flecainide (tambocor) Propafenone (Rythmol)

sodium channel blockers
