My AF meds are Flecainide Bisoprolol Apixiban & Simvastatin also take Cod liver oil Magnesium & Vit B12. Any advice on when to take Iron as don’t want to affect AF stability. Anyone taking this combination please help

I was on iron tablets for anaemia for many months and on the same pills as you for afib and tachycardia. They made no difference to me stomach wise. Anaemia must be treated so don’t worry you will be fine. I just took them with my other tablets first thing in the morning. I can’t remember if I had to take any at night.
