Can I take Flecainide and Lansoprazole together?

Why this happens

Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used to reduce stomach acid, and flecainide is an anti-arrhythmic medicine used to treat heart rhythm problems. They are processed by different pathways in the liver and do not significantly affect each other's absorption or excretion.

You can continue to take both medications as prescribed by your doctor. However, always inform your healthcare provider if you notice any new symptoms, such as dizziness or a change in your heartbeat, as flecainide requires careful monitoring.
