Yeah me too! Just thinking about doses of flecainide 🤔 I had 100mg at 2200hrs last night, due another 100mg at 0800hrs this morning. Wondering if I can have 50mg now as a top up in between?Any thoughts?

Max 24 hour does is 300mg. I'll just leave that here.

My morning dose of 100mg sorted it 👍 300mg over a 24hr period did the trick. See what the main cheese says in 2 months now 😬

I've had that sinking feeling all to often, as have many here. Sorry to hear it's all coming back with a vengeance.

Not what you're looking for?
