What is the purpose of Dronedarone
Dronedarone slows nerve impulses in the heart’s muscles, to help keep the heart rhythm regular. It is not generally prescribed for patients with active atrial fibrillation because of the increased risk of severe side effects.
The drug should not be discontinued without first checking with a doctor. In case of severe side effects like difficulty swallowing or breathing or any of those listed on the drug leaflet’s IMPORTANT WARNING section, stop taking dronedarone and call a doctor or get emergency medical treatment immediately. Do not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice while using this medicine.
Only change the dosage after consulting a healthcare professional. The standard recommended dosage of dronedarone is 400 mg twice daily in adults, taken as one tablet with each of the morning and evening meals.
Doctors recommend that patients do not combine alcohol with dronedarone, as it may diminish the drug's efficacy.
