Hypo type episode while on Forxiga /Dapaglaflozin, waiting for pacemaker upgrade. Any experiences with this drug anyone?
He also told me to stop
Flecainide
and continue Bisprolol. The HF man thought dropping the
Flecainide
was "very cautious", but deferred to the EP. So a little confusion there! Apologies forTMI. But if anyone is still reading I would love some advice about these meds.

Update on the AF journey…
However, this one has now recommended staying on
flecainide
long term. Said as I’m in sinus rhythm, why risk the side effects? Especially risk of stroke. If I can’t stand
flecainide
long term then rethink. Going up to 100mg bd as apparently 50 mg bd is ‘sub therapeutic’ dose.

Looking for feedback regarding Asymptomatic Afib
My electrophysiologist discussed the possibility of starting
flecainide
on an outpatient basis but I have mixed feelings about doing that now.

Molnupiravir interactions with flecainide/tambocor
I discovered that Paxlovid is contraindicated for people taking
flecainide
. (I take 100mg, twice a day. ) My pharmacist noted that Molnupiravir (Lagevrio) was used as an alternative to Paxlovid for people in my situation.

weight loss wehovy and AF medication
However, I would have to switch to Amiodarone, which I decided against and stuck with
Flecainide
. Then, I had another cardioversion 12 weeks ago, and unfortunately, I'm now back in full-time atrial fibrillation.

Weekly episodes, trigger ideas?
I have a pacemaker and take metoprolol for Tachy-Brady and now
flecainide
for aFib. I used to take
flecainide
(75 daily)to control my it…until it didn’t. So, in 2006, I had an ablation, which worked beautifully and eventually allowed me to go off my
flecainide
completely.

Diahhorea 24hrs after Afib episode
Both were around 105 bpm and all over the place rhythm wise.. however that’s a big improvement as is the fact that after using
flecainide
pip it went back to normal rhythm after 48hrs. However, after each episode since the ablation I have had terrible diahhorea. Am I just imagining a link?

Flecainide
This was the first time I would take
Flecainide
PIP, and the EP wanted me to take it at the ER. He prescribed me 50 mg. I am on 180 mg of Extended Release Diltiazem.

Flecainide and immunosuppresants
Does anyone take both Immunosuppressant(s) and
flecainide
at the same time? If so, what has been your experience? And which immunosuppresants are involved.

tambocor
I definitely consider Tambocor to EASILY be the most effective form of
Flecainide
available (?!) But if it isn’t available here in the UK (for less than 87 quid….) what other/generic brand do
Flecainide
users here prefer?? Any and all input would be greatly appreciated. Best to all, Mike

Experiences with Metoprolol
In June, my doctor stopped the
Flecainide
after which I had two Afib episodes, one on June 23 (4 hours) and another on July July 8 (6 hours.) After those episodes, I re-started the
Flecainide
at 50 mg. x2 daily.

Edoxoban Update
I had been taking that since I started PAF in 2010, as well as
Flecainide
and also Fish Oil. I was told that with Edoxoban there were no foods I could not have. What was not mentioned was what supplements I could or could not take.

To start blood thinners or not?
My doctor’s solution is to double my current dose of
Flecainide
from 50 mg twice a day and prescribe Apaxiban.

Can Sodium or Calcium Channel Blockers Worsen SVT?
I have failed Norpace and also
Flecainide
. The problem I am having is that it seems that these medicines are making the SVT worse. I have Atrial Tachycardia. I cannot find any information about this. Where can I get more information?

Chest pain after viscous bout of Afib?
This attack seemed 'different' to the ones before my last ablation so l opted not to take
Flecainide
as PIP. (I was worried it may do arm than good if it was something different to AF). I called 111 and because of the AF and chest pain they sent an emergency ambulance.

Bradyarrythmia
My long standing medication includes verapamil 120 at night and 240 in the morning , Losartan, thyroxine and
flecainide
. The latter dose used to be 100 three times a day. I had reduced this to 100 a day over the last 4 years.
