Important Information Before Using Rythmodan

Rythmodan is used to treat abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). It works by decreasing the sensitivity of heart muscle cells to electrical impulses, therefore slowing the electrical conduction in the heart muscle. This helps to restore disturbances in heart rhythm, which can seriously undermine the pumping action of the heart and result in inefficient blood circulation around the body. Before using tell your doctor: if you have allergic reactions to Rythmodan and any other substance, such as foods, preservatives, or dyes; if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or are breast feeding; if you are using certain medicines such as amitriptyline, clomipramine, desipramine, doxepin, imipramine, and nortriptyline. You should also let your doctor know of the following:

  • Type 2 diabetes mellitus
  • Difficult urination
  • Enlarged prostate
  • Electrolyte disorders
  • Glaucoma
  • Myasthenia gravis
  • Kidney disease
  • Liver disease
