Works very well for occasional A-fib caused by too much alcohol intake. Always causes diaherria.

Being a senior runner I have never taken a drug in my life. I was locked in a fib for six weeks before starting the drug. Eight months later I have had no problems.

I take a 300 mg tablet twice a day, morning and evening. I have had no atrial fibrillation issues since I started taking the medicine.
