Re: Re: Dofetilide/Tikosyn & those first 3 days!

[Guest guest]

Hi Elynn - the clear sailing I was referring to while in the hospital to start

Dofetilde was explained so well below in a previous message from Salwa.

" In very rare instances some patient can develop a very serious rhythm called

ventricular tachycardia during this vulnerable phase. The FDA has mandated that

the first six doses of Tikosyn should be administered in the hospital where one

of those phases on the EKG can be measured after each dose. "

Nope ~~~~ no relation to Gilmartin. We have lots sof Gilmartins, but no

s.

You also wrote: " They keep very close watch over you during

those three days. Once you're over that three day mark, you have

clear sailing. " You were speaking about being in a hospital

setting for the starting of Dofetilide. (snip)
