Cordarone 200 mg Tablets by Sanofi-Aventis contain Amiodarone, a potent antiarrhythmic medication used for the management of serious irregular heart rhythms such as ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and atrial fibrillation. It works by prolonging the cardiac action potential and slowing electrical conduction, helping stabilize heart rhythm in patients who require long-term arrhythmia control. Cordarone is widely used in cardiology for its effectiveness in preventing recurrent, life-threatening arrhythmias.

Dosage:
The typical dosage varies depending on the patient’s condition. Initial loading doses are often followed by a maintenance dose of 200 mg daily, as directed by a cardiologist.

Administration:
For oral use only. Swallow the tablet whole with water. Consistent daily administration is recommended. Do not stop the medication abruptly without medical guidance.

Side Effects:
Cordarone may cause nausea, fatigue, dizziness, sensitivity to sunlight, or changes in taste. Long-term use can affect the thyroid, lungs, liver, or eyes, and patients may experience shortness of breath or vision changes. Regular monitoring of thyroid function, liver function, ECG, and lung health is strongly recommended due to its systemic effects. Seek medical attention if any unusual symptoms develop.
