A-Fib
I am 75 years old. 25 years ago, I was diagnosed with A-Fib. My doctor put me on Propafenone 150mg 3x/day. I have had no A-Fib since then. I had a bad carb accident 4 months ago. My new doctor has added Apixaban 5mg 2x/day and Metoprolol 25mg 2x/day. Do I need all three medications?

Those questions are best asked to your medical doctors. We on MCC can nor should give you medical advise of what to take or not take just our experiences.
I am not familiar with with Propafenone and it's purpose. But I do know that Metoprolol is given to help reduce PACs and PVCs and a very common prescribed drug. I am not familiar with Apixaban either.
I would be asking your prescriber why, what used for, side affects, contradictions and the "do I need all three medications." We don't have your full medical history, your fill mental health history, nor are you doctors so those medical questions should be answered by your medical providers. If they don't get back to you or don't give you the answers I would suggest seeing a EP elsewhere.
@jc76 @lucyloo apixaban is Eliquis
Could someone send me contact/address for pharmacy in Canada to order Eliquis/apixaban. Thank you
