Abstract

Two depressed patients with long QT syndrome who experienced torsade de pointes ventricular tachycardia when treated with psychotropic drugs are discussed. These cases emphasize the significance of electrocardiographic evaluation of depressed patients, particularly in patients who show evidence of a long QT interval. (J. Clin. Psychiatry 46:290-291, 1985).
