Dronedarone

Can anyone tell me if they have yet had any experience with Dronedarone. I have a long complicated history and have failed with many medications. I was on Tykosin at one point and had great success but it enhanced my arrhythmias after a short spell leading to Torsades de Pointes. My status is deteriorating and at one point the physician was recommending this medication if it comes available here in the US. I have read up on it but just wondering if anyone has yet used it with success,.

Hi,
Am in the same boat currently on new drug trial Tikosyn but very bad side effects eg diarrhea, ventricular arrhythmias pending torsades and EP did mention something about Dronedarone but won't be showing itself yet in our part of the world till 2010. Testing in Europe so I heard. Pls send private message if you want to speak in detail regarding worsening arrhythmia which also is happening to me now. All the best. bunnykin

I have a well tuned pacer. I hardly know I have it. I am 76 year old, hike and camp alone in the desert. I have more energy than I have had in a long time. The only problem is my wife wants to have a knob installed so she can turn the pacer down.
