Hope is to keep me on
Flecainide
100mg BD. Also on the list for a 2nd ablation. Be interested in your thoughts and experiences ?

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.

Getting off Verapamil
I concluded 3 months more appropriate and decided to take 180 mg Verapamil sustained release once/day and 50mg
Flecainide
2x daily. 4 months post ablation I stopped
flecainide
50mg twice daily with no adverse effects. Been off
Flecainide
for 3 weeks.

A question about Flecainide
Following the consultant’s recommendation, I am now taking
Flecainide
(50 mg twice a day) to help maintain sinus. My question is: how dangerous is this drug?

(seeking some advice) PVC's, Flecainide, and possibly another ablation.
I've been instructed to STOP (not wean) the
flecainide
five days before the 30 of this month and be on the table for another ablation. Should I? I'm so scared of these things, but I'm also scared of being on the
flecainide
and I'm scared of the ablation.

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

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.

StartedFlecainide yesterday. No changes yet Suggesting another Defib cardioversion so Flecainide might maintain NSR Anyone else similar ?
Started 50mg
Flecainide
BD yesterday. Higher from next week. They're saying another Cardioversion in Nov, so guess they're not expecting the
Flecainide
to put me back in NSR. Has anyone else had this treatment like this and it worked ? Temporary basis I guess while waiting for 2nd ablation.

PVCs and ablation
Also the cardiologist is recommending
Flecainide
to try to deal with the ectopics as Bisoprolol hasn’t worked. Any experiences please? Many thanks 😊

Flecainide

Flecainide
and Pradaxa (empty stomach).

Raised Heart Rate on Flecainide within a week, still in Persistent AF, yet mid week looked like it was settling. Anyone else similar?
I am still in persistent AF, after a failed cardioversion 2 weeks ago, another booked for 16th Nov, idea being the
Flecainide
might help to hold it this time. Have missed this morning's dose in the hope that maybe for me this was too high a dose. Just read it has a 48hr half life.

Flecainide and blood tests
Does anyone have regular blood tests whilst taking
Flecainide

When flecainide is given as a bonus intravenously. Is it always with dextrose?
Does anyone know if
flecainide
is given with anything else.I was given it with dextrose 2 days ago. I looked it up, it is made from corn starch. I am highly allergic. I became ill immediately and now can’t get out of bed.

How many people taking bisoprolol and flecainide for svt?
They have now included
flecainide
to try to help. Is anyone else on this medication for svt and does it/has it helped??? I'm hoping it does for me to save me having to go to a& e for the dreaded adenosine 😁

Positive report on a medium dose of Flecainide over 8 years
It appears many are concerned about starting on
Flecainide
or staying on it even for the short term. So was I and still am!

Life with Ectopics - 20 years old
The
flecainide
was amazing in controlling my symptoms to begin with for the first few months, however the effect wore off and my ectopics came back just as bad. I tried increasing the
flecainide
dose, although the ectopics went crazy, so I went back to 50mg three times a day.

AF after catching Pneumonia
I have been without an AF episode for 5 years then after a bout on pneumonia the AF returned and I went into A&E who advised me not to take my PIP of
Flecainide
as I had not had Echogram since 2013.

Covid booster side effects?
Previously I'd been in and out of AF until the right dose of
Flecainide
and Bisoprolol was reached, since then I've been totally stable in SR. I also played golf that morning and had sharp foot pains, but I was back in sinus rhythm at the end of the game.
