My GP gave me flecainide.tambocor
I think its 100 or 200 mgs
I have. Arythmia episodes most of the time. I take this meds as needed. I am on rythma 100mgs. Cut in half daily
Since this meds hardly puts a dent on my episodes. I have to take flecainide. And all hell.broke loose. Instead of getting back my normal rythym.it went from bad to worst. I went back to my gp. Helpless and asking him if he can give me another kind meds. He took me off flecainide and rythma. Changed it to concore 2,5 mgs twice a day. been 70 % better. than 90% bad day on my recent meds. Honestly this forum is so heartwarming and gives you hope. Knowing im not alone with my ordeals. And people out there sharing their fits.and ways to cope up or lessen their daily experiences. I only pray we all have our wishes forth coming. And all of us get well and get back to what we do best.

I tried 3 different pills before Flecainide and none helped. Flecainide was the only one that decreased my AF episodes - didn't stop completely but infrequent and were manageable. I had no side effects except maybe loss of energy but everyone reacts differently. I was given the choice of Flecainide or amiodarone - Flecainide is much the safer.
