Consumer:Consumer information for this minor interaction is not currently available. Some minor drug interactions may not be clinically relevant in all patients. Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.
Professional:Agents that acidify the urine enhance the renal elimination of flecainide. The result may be decreased plasma flecainide levels and decreased effectiveness. The antiarrhythmic effectiveness of flecainide should be monitored, and plasma flecainide levels should be checked as appropriate. Also, the risk of flecainide toxicity is increased when an agent that acidifies the urine is discontinued.
