5 mg is the normal dose for afib. The 2.5 mg dosage is used for:
● Age ≥80 years
● Body weight ≤60 kg (132 lbs)
● Kidney dysfunction
● Prophylaxis against DVTs
I take 2.5 mg off-label as a substitute for aspirin (I have a Watchman and the Watchman protocol is aspirin for life).

Did you always have no p wave or is this a result of the ablation? I’m thinking about getting my first pv isolation. Will I to ask having to get an LAA isolation? Not sure how that works. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure Carey & Smackman's lack of "p" wave is due to LAA isolation.

Does having a PV ablation increase the risk of needing a LAA isolation?

What else will the doctors need to know to determine if I can stop Metoprolol and Eliquis?
