'...You mention weaning off amiodarone in favor of a different drug; what drug and dose?...'
Whatever instructions that accompany a professional prescription....that is what you should follow. Do not dick around with drugs on a whim, or on the advice of strangers....please. Not me, not anyone posting here.

If you can see from my post the emphasize is going through your doctors to see what is best for you as what works, or one may not be best for you.
I even post a caveat when asked about what medication I take. I have passed on to my doctors about supplements and medications that have been mentioned on MCC so that my doctors recommend which medication I should take not what others take.
Some of the OTC recommendations I was told not to take some others say try as we don't see any contradictions to trying it.
As you can see almost everyone has and had a different reaction to Amiodarone. It is an immensely powerful drug and does what it is supposed to do but all research shows it does have a high toxic effect on the body.
The bottom line is always check with your doctors about any medications and OTC supplements and follow what is prescribed to you.
