How To Use Pacerone
PACERONE: This is best taken with food. However, it is most important to take amiodarone under the same conditions, consistently, for each dose. Ask your pharmacist for additional information. PACERONE works best when there is a constant level of the drug in your body. To do this, take each dose exactly as prescribed at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day and night. Try to take each dose at the same time each day. Do not stop taking PACERONE or change the dose without first consulting your doctor. Some conditions may become worse when the drug is suddenly stopped.
Pacerone Warning
Amiodarone should be used only after all other options have been tried and only under close medical supervision. First doses must be given in a hospital setting. A response may not be seen until 1 or 2 weeks after the medication is given. If your doctor changes your dose or stops PACERONE, you may need to be in the hospital longer. If amiodarone is stopped, it may stay in your body for weeks or months and could interfere with other treatment. Severe, even fatal, lung or liver problems have occurred in patients using PACERONE. Immediately contact your doctor if you experience any of these serious side effects: cough, fever, chills, chest pain, difficult or painful breathing, nausea, dark urine, muscle pain, stomach pain, yellowing eyes/skin, unusually slow or irregular pulse, or blue-gray skin color. Like other medications used to treat irregular heartbeats, this medication can make an irregular heartbeat worse. Heartbeat problems may occur even months after PACERONE has been stopped.
Pacerone Uses
PACERONE is used to treat irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias) and maintain a normal heart rate.
