The authors present a patient with carbamazepine-induced bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome, a rare type of drug-induced sinus node dysfunction. In this case, they established a clear-cut relationship between plasma carbamazepine concentration and the frequency of sinus arrests, following episodes of supraventricular tachycardia. As the pharmacological analysis of drug-induced sinus node dysfunction by concurrent ECG monitoring is very limited, the findings give an insight into the mechanism of this disorder.
