What would be wrong with taking Flecainide, like most of us do?
Hi
Amiodrone has many significant side effects! Search on this forum for amiodrone. There are alternatives which might be suitable, worth talking to your consultant.
All the best

I was offered long term amiodorone but reduced it. Cardioveraions dont work and no ablation. I've been on a host of other media for the last 8 years and doing ok.
I had 3 cardio versions and another one with amiodrone all didn't last but then two years ago I had an ablation and be in normal rhythm since
Good luck
