Anybody on Norpace (disopyramide)?

Anybody on Norpace (disopyramide)?
August 16, 2014 09:39PM
I recently started taking this "old drug" for rhythm control, but then again I'm an "old guy" at 75 :-) Flecainide worked wonders for me during a long period but became less and less effective in recent months. I am a vagal afibber, with episodes coming on only during my sleeping hours. I do plan to get tested for sleep apnea in the near future as that may be a factor. I would appreciate any feedback members have on this new "old drug" I'm taking. I have yet to convert to NSR after three days on disopyramide and am waiting patiently.
Thanks, Tom

Tom,

Back in the day, PC (an MD and prolific poster) used it. Here is a search and you can go to the old pages for PC's posts <[www.afibbers.org]

Thanks, George, for the references and future reading for me. By the way, I just converted to normal sinus rhythm after being on disopyramide for five days! Now, let's see if it keeps me there! Tom
