What is amiodarone?
Amiodarone (generic Pacerone) is a prescription drug used to treat an irregular heartbeat. It can address serious and life-threatening heart rates by helping your heart find a more consistent, steady rhythm.
Talk to your doctor before starting amiodarone therapy. If you are taking any other medication, let your doctor know right away, as some drug interactions may cause serious side effects. Amiodarone is not recommended for women who are breastfeeding, or for patients taking medication to treat hepatitis, liver disease, lung disease, or thyroid problems.
What are common side effects of amiodarone?
While adverse reactions to amiodarone are uncommon, some patients who take the drug experience mild side effects including slow heart rate, weight loss, constipation, low blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and decreased libido.
Rare, more serious adverse events have been known to occur, such as lung infiltrates, abnormal heart rhythms, congestive heart failure, elevated liver enzymes, visual disturbances, photosensitivity, blue skin discoloration, and thyroid problems. Contact your doctor or provider if you are experiencing these symptoms.
This is not a complete list of side effects. For more information about adverse effects you may experience while taking amiodarone, please visit the National Institutes of Health’s DailyMed webpage.
