Nefopam

Has anyone here been prescribed nefopam for pain. My gastroenterologist has suggested it. I am in persistent AF taking digoxin, apixaban and bisoprolol. There are no drug contraindications. Just wondered if anyone has taken it and if they have had any problems with it.

I've been taking Apixaban for four years now. Was 5mg twice daily, reduced now to 2.5mg twice daily - important to take it twelve hours apart. No problems with it. I'd recommend it.

Thank you for your reply. I have no problem with my heart drugs. I was asking about taking nefopam, a pain killer, with our heart condition because previously a pain killer I was prescribed put me into persistent AF.

I have found that if I take 500 magnesium GLYCINATE once in the morning and again at bedtime, I avoid AF. Try it yourself.
