SunBlock 50+
I have just started on
Amiodarone
and have been advised not to go out in the sun and use sun block 50 + which my doctor won't prescribe I know other people have been prescribed this and would be grateful if they would tell me which county they live in so I can go back and do battle!

Side effects of flecinate,propafenone,amiodarone and sotalol
Hi everyone, I am on 150 mg of flecinate for sinus ventricular tachicardia, it gives me intense dreams, so want to try something else, like propfenone,or
amiodarone
or another drug that works better.

Atypical stroke after many years of AF
Dronedarone and
amiodarone
had placed me "close to death" two years ago and, I'm a bleed risk so I was only taking 5mg amlodipine. Lifting a small bag of compost I fell but didn't pass out, my face didn't drop and I didn't lose function or consciousnesss.

Afib, Triggers and sleep.
Hi, I post Worried about Afib and
Amiodarone
after effects and many thanks for all suggestions and comments they were all very helpful. Probably my biggest problem is not only in understanding Afib but sleep or rather lack of sleep of a night.

Persistent AF and Amiodarone - will it work?
She has stopped the Verapamil and now has put me on
Amiodarone
which she says may put my heart back into normal rhythm. Has anybody experience of this pl? I have developed a hacking cough after a slow walk of any distance which the doctor has confirmed is the result of being SOB.

breathless increasing in AF what to do? I am Calli111
I was diagnosed with AF last August and although they started me on
Amiodarone
with a view to cardioversion I could not tolerate it. Nor could I tolerate beta blockers, ACE inhibitors or any of the other drugs they tried me on.

Next steps in managing AF...
I am now to be taken off
Amiodarone
(thank goodness) and given a different anti-arrhythmic in the next week or so. I was wondering if anyone had any idea what might be suggested, any questions I should ask and whether I should continue to be anti-coagulated?

AF drugs
Amiodarone
- a drug to be taken only when all others failed? Flecainide- a drug to be taken after all others have failed?

Rate vs Rhythm for Post-op AF: Neutral Trial, Positive Message
If you were intolerant of
amiodarone
, did not complete the therapy because we stopped it, and switched to rate control, it wasn't a complete crossover because you still have the
amiodarone
on board. Dr Mandrola: Was there crossover in both groups? Dr Gillinov: Yes.

Stopping Amiodarone
Went to see cardiologist yesterday first time after 3rd CV in late Feb 16. Confirmed now back in nsr and told me to stop taking amiodaone from today which I have been taking since Xmas Day. Has anyone experienced any side effects whilst coming off it? Thanks

AF returns after 2 years
Due to my HR being relatively low they didnt think
amiodarone
would be appropriate but gave me instead an increased dose of flecanide 30 mins later, during a routine BP check my ECG flatlined to zero ( i could feel my vision clouding) then immediately reverted to sinus rhythm at my usual resting HR.
