Struggling with Ectopics and Sleeping
I’m currently on 3 x 50mg
flecainide
spread evenly throughout the day but I’m wondering whether I could take an extra one at 4am when the ectopics get most troublesome…? Haven’t been able to get hold of my cardiologist for a couple weeks so thought I’d reach out on here! Thanks.

Vitamin D supplement
I am on 50mg of
flecainide
twice a day and 1.25mg of bisoprolol once a day. Does anyone know if a vitamin D supplement (vitabiotics 400IU) could interact with my maintenance dose please. I don’t want anything to rock the boat as they are working very well. Thank you

Disopyramide and Vagal AF
I’ve had PAF for around 15 years that has generally been under control with the use of
Flecainide
and ablation. 20 months ago I had to come off
Flecainide
following diagnosis of mild coronary heart disease in one of my arteries.

Flecainide and Gaviscon
Can you take Gaviscon if you are taking
Flecainide
. I get acid reflux could take it before when I was on Dronedarone but forgot to ask if it was safe with the new tablet.

Appointment with an electrophysiologist
Answer: - 3 episodes a year - borderline for ablation, - fatal cases with daily
flecainide
and an ablation are equal,(appr1 in 1000 in both cases).

Exciting 3 year link between my weight and AFib?
times in the spring...) unless I am stupid and (say) run too much and too hard (back when I could still run :-( ) - of my three really bad peaks in episode frequency, two have happened at over 205lbs (coincidentally around November 19 and November 21) and the third was purely medication (tried daily

A fib now a flutter
Did the
flecainide
pip cause the flutter ? If I would have had an ablation would this have happened anyway with it being from the right atrium vs the left atrium? Now on metoprolol 25 mg with resting heart rate upper 40s . any thoughts?

AF episode after Ablation
Just a little moan, yesterday had a 2 hour episode after being 7 months free of AF episodes, was gutted as not even any entropic beats, was weaning myself off
flecainide
as advised by my cardiologist and got down to one 50mg twice a day, now going back onto 4 a day then will try again after new year,

Stopping flecainide and Atenolol
Post ablation 8 weeks ago. I stopped taking my meds 2 weeks ago (as instructed by my Cardiologist). Since then I have been unwell. I have nausea, fatigue and pain in my kidney and back. I can’t eat much and feel very emotional. Hi have been to the hospital and had a CT scan and bloods. All has come back

Flecanide PIP dose
This has probably been asked before, but, if you've been directed to use
Flecainide
PIP at the onset of an AFib episode, what dose of it do you take to get back to NSR and how long does it take for that to happen for you. I was recently told to take 200 mg.

In defence of Covid booster
I take
Flecainide
50mg twice a day and Apixaban 5mg twice a day. I feel well not missing the heart beats I was and my heart isn't racing like it was. If felt I had to write as I am fed up with people blaming the Covid vaccine on any new thing that happens to their bodies. I am 63.

Flecainide interactions with midazolam
Looks like I’ll need to have a colonoscopy soon and I wondered if anyone has any experience of any interactions that the sedative midazolam has with
flecainide
. I’m on a maintenance dose of 50mg flec twice a day as well as one 1.25mg bisoprolol once a day.

Wait and see monitor before anticoagulant/anti arrhythmia?
The reason for testing to determine if ok for
Flecainide
use and Apixaban ( score: 3). Recent convo MD says continue to monitor ( aware of two episodes of A-fib in early Nov.)since labs/ ECHO good. I was surprised Meds not prescribed, esp.
