An FBC not only tests for disorders and abnormalities of the blood but, as blood travels throughout the whole body, it can give an indication of disease present in other organs. An FBC, as the name suggests, is used to obtain a count of the blood cells in the sample of blood taken.
Flecainide is a sodium channel blocker used mainly in the treatment of supraventricular arrhythmias. Central nervous system side effects such as dizziness, visual disturbances, headache and nausea are commonly associated with flecainide, but severe central nervous system toxicity is rare.
Other medications can affect the removal of flecainide from your body, which may affect how flecainide works. Examples include asunaprevir, cimetidine, fluconazole, certain HIV protease inhibitors (such as ritonavir, tipranavir), anti-seizure drugs (such as carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital), among others.
