FAQ's on Mexitil 150mg Tablet

Do you take Mexitil with food?

Some people may be advised to take it twice daily, every 12 hours, once their arrhythmias are controlled.

No, Mexitil is not a beta blocker. It is a sodium channel blocker and belongs to antiarrhythmic class of medicine.

Mexitil may lower your heart rate. In addition to this, it may also cause palpitations, irregular heart beats, decrease in blood pressure and atrial fibrillation (abnormal heart rhythm).

Is Mexitil bad for liver?

Yes, Mexitil may cause liver damage. This may occur within a few weeks of starting Mexitil and is more likely to occur in patients with heart failure.

Tell your doctor if you notice symptoms such as fatigue, dark or “tea-colored” urine, loss of appetite for several days or longer, or pain and tenderness on the right side of the abdomen. Look out if your skin or the white part of your eyes turn yellow (jaundice) and consult your doctor immediately.
