For Atrial Fibrillation "I've been on Rythmol for atrial fibrillation for about 6 months. Initially, it wasn't working too well. I'd be in rhythm for a few days and go out for a day or more. After a few months of this, I asked my cardiologist if he could suggest another anti-arrhythmia drug, but he suggested we give Rythmol more time. He increased my dosage gradually until I was taking the maximum dose, two 150 mg tablets 3 times a day. I have been in rhythm for over two months now, and I never had any side effects, so I am very satisfied at this point."

For Atrial Fibrillation "I have taken Rythmol for about 6 months now in combination with Xarelto. I absolutely hate taking any meds at all! I was having to go to the ER and was hospitalized several times before I started on it for afib and high BP. That is fairly controlled now, which I am thankful for. The biggest side effects I see are drying of skin, especially feet, arms, hands, extreme constipation, like my gut feels paralyzed no matter what I eat, and sometimes a drop in BP, especially after meals and first thing in the morning. I want to get off the meds but am afraid to, don't know how, and cannot get doctor's approval for that so far."

For Atrial Fibrillation "The combo of atenolol in the morning and 1 propafenone at bedtime has stopped my atrial fibrillation in its tracks!"

For Atrial Fibrillation "Have had atrial fibrillation for 25 years. Tried a number of medicines and was on amiodarone for a few years but had to stop. Decided to give Rythmol a try, and have used it for more than 15 years. Have not had a noticeable attack of atrial fibrillation for many years, although I did land in emergency for another arrhythmia last year. This has been a lifesaver for me. Supply is getting to be an issue though."
