Drug Therapies for Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial Fibrillation patients often search for unbiased information and guidance about medicines and drug therapy treatments. At A-Fib.com, we have answered thousands of patient questions—perhaps the same questions you have right now. In FAQs about Living with A-Fib, we discuss Drug Therapies and Medicines.

We provide answers to the most frequently asked questions by patients and their families.

Some of the questions we answer: Which medications are best to control my Atrial Fibrillation? Is the “Pill-In-The-Pocket” treatment a cure? I’m worried about the toxic side effects of amiodarone. What should I do? and What are my chances of getting an A-Fib stroke?

We also answer questions about warfarin and Coumadin, foods with Vitamin K, Electrical Cardioversion, aspirin and stroke prevention, and natural blood thinners.
