Flecainide for AF

Flecainide is an exceptionally good treatment for AF

[wnfaknd]

This is indeed true. For me, it resolves in about 90 mins with 300mg. Thad said, after I started taking magnesium and potassium supplements, I stopped having episodes. Haven’t had one since 2017

I had a-fib that didn't respond to medication. After about four months of many horrible episodes I had an ablation. It was one of the best things I've done in my life. It's going on fourteen months without an a-fib episode. I'm back to having a normal life.

My hero of a doctor but above all my hero of a human! 💕

Thank you very much for usefull information. God bless you sir.

I was put in that when I started having Afib. Was to take it twice a day, but watching one of your vids a couple of years ago, only take it when required. Works for me.

[RehabKader]

I take it but yet I feel vomiting and headache

[darthlaurel]

No heart drugs work for me. Had an ablation but I still have problems. It is what it is.

I'm in persistent afib. My med isn't helping to convert the disrhytmia.

I've had my Flecainide increased from 50mg to 100mg. My rhythm has changed from fast AF to slow AF and i feel dreadful. I feel faint sitting down and it's very frightening. So im now worried it might be making it worse. Its such a long wait to get a follow-up appointment with the cardiologist i don't know what to do.

I had AFIB - and took Flecainide for 2 months with no benefit morning and night - then after a cardio- version - my Doctor kept me on it - he says it will prevent AFIB from returning - its been almost 2 years now.

Thank you, I was just diagnosed with paroxsymal afib. Rapid and short. Hasn't happened again in a month. Seeing the specialist soon.

[geraldinemcwilliams]

💭💭 YORK CARDIOLOGY could YOU please do a very important video on having atrial fibrillation (afib) and taking antibiotics 👆🏻😱🚨⚠️💭👆🏻

[rolfet]

If you have such paroxysmal Afib for which you can stop it handily with flecainide as "pill in the pocket" I wonder if you then also- at the same time- should be taking anti-coagulantia as pill in the pcket or maybe even regularily be on that? Your professional opinion on this very appreciated!

[ParkerThwips]

I have this as a pill-in-the pocket but i'm terrified to take it. I've heard from my EP a small number of people it could actually put you into a more dire arrhythmia. I have yet to take it but I haven't had an episode where I've felt the need to.

Doctor can you do a video review of AF and amidarone

[peggymicsky]

I would love to know why my doctor only offers me Eliquis or Warfarin? Are they the only two meds for AFIB? One super expensive and one super cheap. If it can be used to terminate an episode of AFIB, why can't it be used on long term permanent AFIB?

[peggymicsky]

Like your jammies, Doc! Are you ready for bed? 😘
