Antiarrhythmic Effects of Spironolactone in Patients With ICDs

This study will test whether spironolactone, an approved drug for among other things hypertension, will reduce the risk of severe arrhythmias in patients with implanted defibrillators. Half the patients in the study will get spironolactone and half will get a placebo. Neither the patients or their providers will know if they are getting spironolactone or placebo.
