Norpace Capsule 10's

Norpace Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called anti-arrhythmic agents used to treat irregular heartbeats. An irregular heartbeat is a condition in which your heart beats irregularly, too fast, or too slow. Norpace Capsule helps slow the heart rate and prevent arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms).  

Norpace Capsule contains disopyramide, i.e., anti-arrhythmic agents. It helps to correct irregular heartbeats to a normal rhythm by blocking certain electrical signals in the heart. An irregular heartbeat treatment reduces the risk of blood clots, heart attack, or stroke.

Norpace Capsule should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. Your doctor might conduct ECGs and blood pressure monitoring during the treatment to monitor your dose. Some people may experience common side effects like blurred or double vision, stomach pain, little or no urinating, and low blood sugar. Most of these side effects of Norpace Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.
