Tambocor/Flecainide I think is causing my Mom to have dizziness and fainting spells. I have passed out before. I can't stand up without getting dizzy. My blood pressure is good, I am eating well, and I am not dehyrated. Would like to know if others have had the dizzy fainting spells?

I had a fib and mitral valve prolapse. I feel so much better, no shortness of breath, more energetic since starting meds and getting heart rythym under control. I take 50 mg. 2-3 times a day. Medication should always be started in hospital so that doctor can control heart rythym and find right strength for you. Can have severe side effects. It has been a lifesaver for me.

The smallest dosage of this drug is 50mg. I am currently taking 1/2 pill twice a day. Even with this low dose, I still occasionally get a flutter or two during the day. Aside from the inconvenience of having to cut such a small pill, I have had very good results with Tambocor.
