A member asked:

Since i started ivrabadine 5mg twice a day i'm getting irregular heart rhythm and now i'm getting missed beats?

Could be afib: your medication can in a small percentage of cases cause an irregular beat, especially atrial fibrillation. I recommend that you see the physician who prescribed the drug and tell him/her your symptoms- they may do a holter monitor to assess for atrial fibrillation and treat accordingly.
