Amiodarone Side Effects

Updated

I am a HCM patient with irregular heart beat, age 43Ys, M. I had taken amidarone 200mg (1+0+0) with Concor 5mg for 3ys. 6month ago Amio was stopped due to side effects. My thyroid function test was not normal. It was hyper (TSH=0). After stopping Amiodarone I hve been taking Concor 5mg twice a day (5mg+0+5mg). Irregular heart beat was more or less there with a tollerance level, also my doctor told that recent Holter report/ECG doesn't show any dangerous types of irregulat beats. Recently my Thyroid test is normal (TSH=3.71) though I didn't take any med for this as suggested by my Doc. Now he wants to go back again with Amiodarone200mg once daily +Conconr 5mg once daily, and asked my opinion abt this. Is it ok to go back again with Amidarone? Incase (if) any Lungs prob due to Amio is it reverseable? What are the possible Amio side effects which are not reverseable, but to death?

Alternatively, he has suggested for Multaq 400mg once daily with Concor 5mg + 0 + Concor 5mg. Can high dossages of Bisoprolol (5mg+0+5mg) may be used with a single dossage of Multaq 400mg (1+0+0)? Is there any sideeffects using these medicines togetherly?

Current treatment Concor 5mg+0+Concor 5mg with Plavix

Would be grateful if this comes to the attention of any expert of treating Irregular Heart beats and get an answer/advice. Also who are the experts to treat this? Interventional Cardiologist?
