Amiodarone
I've been given a new to me drug called
Amiodarone
, which seems to have a lot of potential side effects. I'm also on Bisoprazole, which I've taken for a long time. As I also suffer from ME, with poor mobility, I wondered if anyone could tell me about their experiences with
Amiodarone
.

Amiodarone
Out of interest - If for a different reason you were given a different medication what was it please & did you have to stop
Amiodarone
for a while before taking new medication? One chemist told me
Amiodarone
is available in liquid form but due to costs probably won't be given as alternative.

Amiodarone
I am on
Amiodarone
100.. apparently there are none in the chemist in my area as out of stock. I was prescribed 200 .. my worry is the aggravation of cutting them in half with bits flying all over the place. If the event would getting the wrong dose be dangerous.

amiodarone
Because of other underlying problems with CKD, doc put me on
Amiodarone
200mg daily, along with Nebivolol bi-daily, replacing Bisoprolol. Was discharged after 6 days when heart rate was consistently below 80bpm.

Amiodarone
Has anyone had good or bad experiences with this drug! I have a friend that has taken it for a few years and now in four days has a high heart rate in 167! He has gone to the hospital twice and in less than a week had two conversions and has worked for just a few hours! Now he is in the hospital again

Coming off Amiodarone
After developing Afib (thanks to Covid) I was put on
amiodarone
, bisoprolol and edoxaban. A terrible two to three weeks followed without a wink of sleep getting the
amiodarone
into my system. I had a cardioversion a few months later (delayed thanks to doctors and nurses strikes).

Monitor for Afib
Hi all,Having gone into permanent Afib after a covid infection with no previous history I've had a cardioversion whist on
amiodarone
. As far as I'm aware I'm still in sinus rhythm and now off
amiodarone
(thank goodness). I'm on the waiting list for an ablation.

how to get off amiodrone
The hemotologist and other cannot find a medicine I can replace the hydroxyurea with because the few available react with
amiodarone
, ... I need to replace the
amiodarone
. with another medicine so that I can have a medicine that will allow the ulcers to heal instead of the hydroxyurea.

Amiodarone / Cordarone
Longer forecast is oral dose of Cordaone, which seems to be the brand name for
Amiodarone
, together with continued use of BetaBlockers.

amiodarone
I forgot to say the dr also gave me
amiodarone
to take. 1 tablet of 200mg three times a week. One on Mondays then one on Wednesday and one on Friday. I have to carry on like this until they get me an appointment with a rythmologue. He will talk to me about having an ablation or not.

Amiodarone Dose
I’ve been prescribed
Amiodarone
. The 1st week’s dose is 200mg 3 times a day then 100mg per day thereafter. I’m just enquiring if anyone else has taken a daily dose of 600mg daily for 7 days when starting this drug?

What s happening in our NHS ?- All the shortages.
Sleeping tablets all change - but
Amiodarone
matters. quite toxic but works and I don't like the alternatives, Flecainide for example. What next?

Waiting for ablation
I'm now on the list for an ablation and stopped taking the
Amiodarone
in October, a year after starting it. As far as I'm aware I'm still in sinus rhythm (based only on feeling my chest and pulse). The nurse said there was a chance I'd stay in it given the long half life of
Amiodarone
.

Amiodarone and AF
Been on
amiodarone
and pleased to report not a single flutter since. Had transformed my life. Cardiologist wants to reduce my dose and later change me to another drug. Does anyone have experience of this. I’m nervous about what effect will be as
amiodarone
been working so well.

Hi all I'm newbie. Anyone here have lung damage due to Amiodarone treatment?
Side effect of
Amiodarone
causes pulmonary problems that can't be reversed. Can't understand why it comes and goes after goes after about a week. Incidentally, I was on
Amiodarone
for exactly 7 weeks an 3 days. What should I do? Does anyone on this forum have lung problems due
Amiodarone
usage?

Mitral Valve Af and fed up
Cardio version worked for 5 days so was put on
Amiodarone
200mg along with the usual others, Apixiban, Nebivolol. The
Amiodarone
messed my thyroid about so was put on a higher dose of Levothyroxine.

Amiodarone
HiMy cardiologist has advised that I should start taking
Amiodarone
to help my AF. Done a bit of reading/research and looks like some high risk side effects. Grateful for any views from people that have been using
Amiodarone
and their experiences- good and bad. Thank you.

Experience with amiodarone
My arrhythmia nurse took me off flecainide because of the atrial flutter and put on solatol which didn’t keep me in rhythm and Iam now in persistent AF and prescribed
Amiodarone
. I have read so many negative comments and side effects I am scared to start this drug.
