Sotalol (80mg) for atrial fibrillation
Initially I had metoprolol followed by cardioversion. It was successful, but after two days I reverted back to permanent chest fibrillation. As a result I was switched to Solatol because the heart rate wasn't too high and Solatol works more on rhythm. Had another cardioversion and this time it seems to have worked better. Heart rate is now somewhat on the low side (41 at rest), but I feel great...

Sotalol (40mg) for atrial fibrillation
In 2001 I had a really bad fibrillation. After that I regularly had them once or twice a year. In November 2015 the attack lasted for a really long time, too long according to the GP. So in consultation with the cardiologist started taking sotalol. Within 1 month I had another attack. And again in July. So I'm not convinced about the effectiveness of this drug. Going to see cardiologist soon.

Sotalol (40mg) for cardiac arrhythmia
Because I have COPD, my cardiologist says there's not really anything I can take. The 2 are fighting with each other and it's like finding the least worst option. But I'm really feeling suicidal. Can anyone help me?

Sotalol (80mg) for cardiac arrhythmia
I have been using Solatol for a long time and it works really well for me for my arrhythmia even though it also has bad side effects like tinnitus, dizziness and quickly feeling tired. I had an ablation but it didn't work.
