Flecainide 100 Mg (Top voted first)

Updated

I have been taking 'Flecainide 100mg' Twice a day since 1988. Its to stop a eregular heart beat. It has worked great till my last 2 perscriptions. There is no smell to the pills that i have noticed till the last two perscriptions. The last two smell soured like bad milk. The symptoms that they are supposed to take care of are back. I think the pills are bad. Not doing there job. I told the pharacy guy. But, he has never smelled them as much as i. And, Told me to contact you. I get 120 at a time. I put a weeks worth in a extra bottle. so i dont open the main bottle everyday. What should i do?

Hi Donald - So you're saying that your own pharmacist has been unable or unwilling to take back and refill your prescription?? That sucks especially if this current batch is not controlling your symptoms!

Do the current pills have the same inscriptions/markings as the original ones? Maybe they even gave you a different med by accident. Geez.

If the pharmacy is not helping you then what I'd recommend is getting your doctor to re-write a new prescription so that you can get a new refill. This is totally warranted especially if your symptoms are back!

Man, I hope this helps! Let me know how it goes...

I have used Flecainide, 50 mg twice daily for over a year with no side effects, however, 4 months ago I started to experience some mild urinary incontinence. I am a 69 year old female in reasonable health, wondering if others have experienced incontinence while using Flecainide. I can find no mention of this in PubMed, but have seen this side effect mentioned a couple of times in other sources.
