Treatment of documented life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (e.g., sustained ventricular tachycardia). Use for less severe arrhythmias is notrecommended.

Can reduce ventricular premature contractions (VPCs), paired VPCs, and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia and can suppress the recurrence of ventricular tachycardia and/or fibrillation in patients with ventricular tachycardia and/or fibrillation. Avoid treatment of asymptomatic VPCs.

Has been effective in some patients for the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias unresponsive to other antiarrhythmic agents.

Has been used with equivocal results in the management of painful diabetic neuropathy; pending further accumulation of data from well-designed studies, use only in patients who do not respond to or cannot tolerate more established therapies.
