    (Başkent Üniversitesi, 2008-12) Bassily-Marcus, Adel; Benjamin, Ernest; Manasia, Anthony; Oropello, John; Murgolo, Victor; Leibowitz, Andrew; Kohli-Seth, Roopa
    Daclizumab is a commonly used immuno­sup­pressive agent for prophylaxis of solid organ rejection. Although rare, the cardiovascular adverse effects of daclizumab include sinus tachycardia, hypotension, and hypertension. Here, we report 3 patients who developed significant and prolonged sinus bradycardia after receiving daclizumab following orthotopic liver transplant. Daclizumab should be considered a possible cause of brady­cardia following its administration in orthotopic liver transplant.
