Yesterday I caught a QT interaction between donepezil and flecainide, and a few days beforehand a donepezil x azithromycin interaction which ended up seeing the azithro withdrawn. Donepezil has good documentation for causing Torsades des pointes with agents like amiodarone or citalopram, but I'm not
Before my ablation I read many posts and they helped me a lot so I’m sharing my experience and hope it will help others especially because my case was successful. I had an ablation for PVCs/bigeminy one month ago in a university teaching hospital where I spent my career as a nurse. I went from havin
