Life-Saving or Life-Threatening? First Time on Dofetilide 250mcg Capsules...

I really hope it works for you. I know it isn't easy to go to the hospital for the first time. But it is worth it if it helps. Why not try it and see what happens?

Be careful with this stuff. My friend had a bad time with it, though he was a total junkie. He took it in spite of the risks because it was worth it. He would have been dead without it and he knew it. But yea, it is risky. So be careful.

This med is a hard sell, but it works. The reason you have to start in the hospital is that it can cause torsades de pointes. That is a type of heart attack. I knew someone who had it. Scary stuff.

Dofetilide saved my life. I had a bad case of Atrial Fibrillation, and I was in really bad shape. I was admitted to the hospital, but I had to go to an intensive care unit. They had to shock me a few times, and I was in bad shape. But Dofetilide was the only thing that made a difference. I am really glad I took it. If you can avoid it, just don't. But if you have to, take it. I am grateful.

I had to stop taking it because of dizziness!

I'm on my second week, and so far, so good. No major side effects, just a bit of a headache. Fingers crossed it stays this way!

I wish they had something else. I hate going to the hospital, but it was ok. The doctor watched me for a while, and I didn't have any serious side effects. But if there is something else out there, I would take it. I am not a fan of this drug.

I've been on Dofetilide for about six months now. The first few days in the hospital were intense, but my doctor and nurses were great. They monitored my heart closely. I didn't experience any of the serious side effects, thankfully, just a bit of an upset stomach and some headaches, which I was prepared for. This helped me keep my cool, and it was worth it for the relief from AFib.
