Quinidine Sulphate

About 11 years ago I was diagnosed with Brugada Syndrome and had a de-fib fitted as well as prescibed Quinidine and Bisoloprol which I have taken ever since. 4 years ago my de-fib activated so my Consultant increased the levles of Quinidine. However I am told by my Consultant & Pharmacy that they cannot get hold of Quinidine (from the Dutch supplier) and I have taken no Quinidine for the last 2 weeks. Have others experienced the same problem?

Thanks Tracy. The Doctors don't want to know as the drug is unlicenced and only obtainable from the Consultant. Currently going through PALS at the Hospital.
