Effect of Atabrine on Auricular Fibrillation in the Dog

Abstract
1. Experimentally produced auricular fibrillation in the dog was successfully restored to normal sinus rhythm by the intravenous infusion of atabrine (average 2.17 mg per kg). 2. The mechanism by which atabrine might produce this effect is discussed. It is suggested that its action is similar to that of quinine or quinidine.
