Rythmol

I have a Mirtal Valve problem and also Artial Fib. I am taking Rythmol 100mg and Cardizem LA 240mg and I was wondering if weight gain is associated with the Rythmol.

My doctor has assigned Rhymol for my a-Fib which I've had for ten years. I have sick sinus sindrome and bradicardia.  I noted that these are two conditions in which Rhyhmol may not be advisable.  Any insights?

I am not taking Rythmol, but I am taking another antiarrhythmic drug, Amiodarone. Since starting on the Amiodarone (which by the way has improved the way I feel 100%), I have notice I have a bigger appetite. Not sure if this is from the drug, or just the fact that I am doing so much better now, and not being worried by the tachycardias. If I do start to add on weight, I will just add more time to my exercises. Usually works best for me and my weight......................................Ally

I did not gain any weight while I was taking Rhythmol.  Hope it works well for you.
