Amiodarone
I had a call from cardiac nurse this afternoon telling me the plan is to put me onto
Amiodarone
and then try another Cardioversion.

ECG Flappy gaps?
NB I was in A&E again late last week over concerns about the
Amiodarone
vs these (increasingly) frequent “break throughs” of AF and all they said was to ride it out till the ablation on the 22nd. Your thoughts would be most welcome.

Anyone on anything a bit unusual and helpful? Any off-label or off-patent drugs?
I understand it will be very individual I am just curious and yes my question stems from my husband’s intolerance to many drugs (latests no-go was
Amiodarone
) and I am trying to look for possibilities. Thanks, Eva

Amiodarone
After replying to another member about not experiencing side effects on
Amiodarone
, I now have a tingling and pin prick sensation on the back of my hands. Has anybody else experienced this? TIA

Amiodarone + AFIB
Just wondered if anyone had experienced any adverse effects of taking
Amiodarone
? I’ve just completed week 1 of the “loading dose” (200mg x 3 times a day).

pace and a late
With that and a pacemaker I’ll be off all drugs (except baby aspirin, which barely counts when compared to the dreadful
amiodarone
). I enthusiastically look forward to being off drugs and having minimal stroke risk. I’m soon 83 and my goal is simply quality of life in my remaining years.

Recent Ablation
I came home with ibuprofen & lansoprazole , told to stop my bisoprolol but to continue to take the
amiodarone
alongside the apixaban for a further 6 weeks. Nothing on my discharge summary did it indicate to continue with the ibuprofen.

Uncertain about Amiodarone and cardioversion
I consulted a private EP and he has prescribed
Amiodarone
followed by cardioversion. Presumably that will lead on to ablation if the exprience of others is anything to go by. My heart is otherwise healthy. I keep putting it off mainly due to the bad side effects of
amiodarone
.

This thread needs to be sent to the Minister for Health
Factor in the inputs by surgery staff (all over the place in my case - one week I could order both Nebivolol and
Amiodarone
) plus its reliance on expensive technology, its certain to be detrimental to the healthcare of large groups of people.

Back from EP after Cardioversion Failure
Now EP wants to try another Cardioversion in conjunction with
amiodarone
. I am concerned because I already have neuropathy in feet and fingers and I have read this medicine can worsen that. Anyone with experience with it?

Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) and Amiodarone
Risk up with
amiodarone
versus flecainide or sotalol among seniors with atrial fibrillation receiving apixaban or rivaroxaban For patients with atrial fibrillation receiving apixaban or rivaroxaban, the risk of bleeding-related hospitalizations is greater during
amiodarone
treatment than flecainide

Amiodarone
Hi all, I’ve been on
Amiodarone
since February and supposed to only be on it for 3 months due to my age and the side effects. Over the past week, my vision has become extremely blurry when looking at my phone. Just wondered if this was a common side effect experienced on this drug? Thanks, B

How long til Amiodarone works?
Wondering what others have experienced with
amiodarone
. How long did it take to start working? My AF started suddenly Feb 6, progressing quickly to daily. Dronaderone didn’t work. 11 days ago after 6th cardioversion, EP put me on
amiodarone
despite concerns for my low HR.

Insomnia, side-effect of amiodarone?
Has anyone else been affected by
amiodarone
in this way or for that matter with any other medication? Thank you and hope you’re all doing okay.
