A member asked:
If flecainide doesn't have any effect on sinus rhythm, why did it lower my resting hr and get rid of my high hr going up stairs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flecainide: The effects of flecainide on resting heart rate and on exercise heart rate response are usually minimal. To answer your question with more specificity would require all the clinical details. If you still have questions after talking with the prescribing doctor, you could get a 2nd opinion Inbox Consult on HealthTap.
