Tambocor How to Take

Tambocor (Flecainide) belongs to the class of medications known as antiarrhythmics. It is used to treat or prevent abnormal heart rhythms in certain conditions (e.g., paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardias, sustained ventricular tachycardia). It works by slowing down the rate of nerve impulses causing the heart to beat, and by making the heart less likely to respond to abnormal impulses.

Tambocor (Flecainide) may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of Tambocor (Flecainide) may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here.
