Pacerone and Atrial fibrillation/flutter - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Atrial fibrillation/flutter is reported as a side effect among people who take Pacerone (amiodarone hydrochloride), especially for people who are male, 60+ old, have been taking the drug for < 1 month also take Digoxin, and have Multiple myeloma.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes which people have Atrial fibrillation/flutter when taking Pacerone. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 2,705 people who have side effects when taking Pacerone from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
