What is the schedule of use of Opacorden?

Is it possible to use Opacorden 3 times a day for 2 tablets for 3 days, then 3 times for 1 tablet for 3 days, then 2 times a day for 1 tablet for 5 days, and then 1 time a day for 1 tablet. I'm afraid the doctor made a mistake. I take acecumarol on a regular basis (for blood thinning). So far, I have used polphanol, but it stopped working. Cardioversion has been used three times. I have an artificial heart valve.

Yes, the dosing regimen of Opacorden is most likely. In the first days, the so-called loading dose is used, hence the higher dosage in the first days of treatment. After a few days, the dose is reduced to a maintenance dose. Opacorden contains amiodarone, a medicine used to treat arrhythmias. Treatment with amiodarone should be started in a hospital and then continued under the care of a specialist. For my part, I would like to point out that the drug Opacorden can inhibit the metabolism of the drug Acenocumarol. This can cause an increase in the concentration of an anticoagulant in the body and increase the risk of bleeding. Hence, it is necessary to regularly monitor the prothrombin time (international normalized factor - INR) in order to adjust the doses of the anticoagulant on an ongoing basis.
