Interaction of Citalopram and Amiodarone
I was also prescribed Citalopram 10mg but still on
Amiodarone
although I told the GP I had just stopped. However, I have, after missing only a day, gone back on it again because I felt so angry with the lack of sensitivity of yet another male GP. I feel
Amiodarone
is for the moment protective.

Worried about too larger a dose for Pill in Pocket for my weight.
At the moment I am taking
Amiodarone
but will stop soon. Then it will be 12 weeks after my ablation for AFib.
Amiodarone
has been a blessing and given me peace from the 2nd week of taking it but I know that it should only be short term.

Also not only found correct dosage of Flecainide as PIP but also that Citalopram can have serious side effects when taken with Amiodarone.

Amiodarone

Post ablation anxieties
I am anxious to come off the
Amiodarone
as that did stop the episodes before my ablation. Bisoprolol and Sotolol did not work. I have been told to come off the
Amiodarone
10 weeks after ablation. My thoughts are "then what" if the AFib comes back.

In favour of Amiodarone
I know that
amiodarone
is not a nice drug to be on for too long, particularly for those that have side affects, but I think it has helped me.

First post from yet another fearful afibber (lone longstanding persistent) facing an ablation!
I am concerned because I live alone and miles from an AandE. 5.I really did not want to go on the toxic drug,
Amiodarone
, but it seems to part of the deal.

Where to go
Just been changed to
amiodarone

Amiodarone ?
I have AFib and after being on Metoprolol for about 10 months and AF free for 3 months I was just prescribed
Amiodarone
to replace the Metoprolol. I've researched this drug and don't like what I've learned. Apparently it is potentially toxic to many organs.

Curing AF naturally?
His latest visit to the cardiologist has recommended he go off the
Amiodarone
and onto Diltiazem CD 180mg daily. He has mild depression especially after each proceedure only sticks in sinus rhythm for a few days then back into AF.

A-Fib and Metastasis, Taurine and Arginine?
I have now stopped the medicine (
Amiodarone
). I take blood pressure readings regularly and they are generally in the 110--125 over 55-60, the heart rate is usually 55-60. The cardiologist is OK with this as long as I don't have significant episodes and with continual monitoring.

Harvoni, Re FDA Report on adverse effects.
The drug has been on the market since October 14, 2014; and the only warning is an interaction with
Amiodarone
? How many more have to die, be crippled or have loss of quality of life before the public is informed?
