Co-Amoxiclav side effects with Disopyramide/AF?

Hi, just started taking Co-amoxiclav as an antibiotic, and now seem to be getting an increase in AF symptoms. Still taking Disopyramide, but this seems to be less effective at rate control than it has been previously. No Caffeine, no alcohol, so no obvious triggers.

Anyone else experienced this?

I will venture a guess that your increased afib is probably due to the condition that the antibiotic was prescribed for. The antibiotic, Augmenting, is very safe with minimal interactions with other drugs. Infections, which beget inflammation, is a much better bet to trigger afib.
