What Are The Side Effects Of Nebicard?
Dear Sir,
I had an ICD implant two weeks back and on Nebicard5, Amiodarone200 and ecosprin75/10. After a couple of days of the medicines, I am feeling dizzy, whenever I get up from a sitting or sleeping position. It stays for a few seconds and then go away. In addition, I am experiencing breathlessness when walking or excercising. I was taking Metoprolol/Valsartan before the implant and never had any issues like above. The implant was done due to two episodes of Tachycardia I experienced and I am chronically suffering skipping of heart beats/irregular beating of heart for twenty years.
The symptoms are due to Nebicard/Amiodarone? Can I discontinue Nebicard and use Valsartan as it is controlling my BP very well. appreciate your advice very much.
