Overview

Cordarone 200mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) presented as a tablet, with Amiodarone Hydrochloride 200mg as its active ingredient content.

This page is limited to product, safety and handling information, in line with Malaysian rules on prescription medicine information for the public. Your prescriber or pharmacist is the right source for anything beyond that, together with the leaflet inside the pack.

Through DoctorOnCall, this product is supplied after an online consultation with a licensed doctor and a valid prescription, and it is checked by a registered pharmacist before dispensing. Take it exactly as prescribed, and speak to your doctor before stopping, changing the dose, or starting any other medicine alongside it.

Directions for Use

Take Cordarone 200mg Tablet with food to reduce stomach upset, at the times instructed by your specialist. Swallow the tablet whole with water. Attend all scheduled monitoring appointments, including blood tests and other check-ups, as these are essential for your safety during long-term treatment.

Dosage

The dose of Cordarone 200mg Tablet is individualised by your specialist, typically starting with a higher loading dose for one to two weeks, followed by a lower maintenance dose once the heart rhythm is controlled. Never adjust your dose on your own, as amiodarone has a long duration of action in the body and dose changes must be guided by your doctor.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

Side Effects

  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Fatigue or dizziness
  • Skin sensitivity to sunlight
  • Tremors or involuntary movements
  • Abnormal liver function tests
  • Shortness of breath or cough
  • Vision changes (such as blurred vision)

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to amiodarone or iodine
  • Severe sinus node dysfunction, sinus bradycardia, or high-grade heart block, unless a pacemaker is fitted
  • Known thyroid dysfunction, unless being treated under close specialist supervision
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding
  • Cardiogenic shock

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Warfarin and other anticoagulants – amiodarone can significantly increase their blood-thinning effect, requiring closer monitoring
  • Digoxin blood levels may increase, raising the risk of digoxin toxicity
  • Other medicines that prolong the QT interval, or CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. certain antibiotics, antifungals), may increase the risk of serious heart rhythm problems
  • Grapefruit juice may increase amiodarone blood levels and should be avoided
  • Simvastatin and certain other statins – combining with amiodarone increases the risk of muscle-related side effects

Quick Tips

  • Attend all scheduled thyroid, liver, lung, and eye monitoring appointments during treatment
  • Use sun protection and protective clothing, as amiodarone increases sensitivity to sunlight even after stopping
  • Report new breathlessness, persistent cough, unusual tiredness, or yellowing of the skin/eyes to your specialist promptly
  • Inform every doctor, dentist, or pharmacist that you are taking amiodarone before starting any new medicine

  • Amiodarone Hydrochloride 200mg
