Sotalex Tablet 80 mg contains Sotalol Hydrochloride, a non-selective beta-adrenergic blocker with Class III antiarrhythmic properties. It is primarily used to manage various cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and ventricular tachycardia. Sotalol works by slowing the heart rate, reducing abnormal electrical activity in the heart, and helping maintain a normal heart rhythm.

This medication is particularly beneficial for patients with recurrent or persistent arrhythmias, providing both rate control and rhythm stabilization. Sotalex 80 mg is suitable for adults who require consistent antiarrhythmic therapy under medical supervision.
