RESUMO
Doxapram, a respiratory stimulant, is used to treat idiopathic apnea of prematurity. The side effects reported are minimal. We present three cases of second-degree atrioventricular block caused by QT interval prolongation associated with doxapram administration. All three infants returned to normal sinus rhythm after doxapram administration was stopped.
