Oedema is not a side effect of propafanone I have ever come across. Calcium chanel blockers yes but this is a drug I have used on and off for years with little problems apart from a strange metalic taste all the time .
I took Propafenone for many years and didn't have probs with swollen legs until I started taking Diltiazem with it.
I took Propafenone for 2-3 months after ablation in 2012 and take infrequently since for no more than a day. I've experienced no side-effects including no edema.
