Documented Uses

• Tetraethylammonium is an experimental drug with no approved indication.
• A class of drugs that act by inhibition of potassium efflux through cell membranes. Blockade of potassium channels prolongs the duration of ACTION POTENTIALS. They are used as ANTI-ARRHYTHMIA AGENTS and VASODILATOR AGENTS.
• Tetraethylammonium is eliminated by active renal tubular secretion by the cation transport system.
• Tetraethylammonium's mechanism of action is still being investigated, but it is known that it blocks autonomic ganglia, calcium- and voltage- activated potassium channels, and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
