What is transient heart block as described by one of the effects

It is a short-term disabling of the atrioventricular node's ability to conduct electrical impulses, preventing ventricular activation by the SA node, atria, or AV node. Podwich 07:28, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

They just administered it to me today (SVT attack); if it corresponds to the most likely symptom, it was my heart stopping and starting again. Nice big burning sensation.

An additional side effect is heart arrest. This happened to me yesterday and although resuscitation was successful very stressing (well it was a stress test!). The medical facility was aware of this side effect and included it in their consent form.
